Starting PME in August
I’m starting year one of my PME Post Primary in August and just have some questions. For some background the school is in Dublin with about 500 pupils. My subjects are Irish and History
I’ve gotten my vetting disclosure from both DCU and the School but I applied to the teaching council nearly 3 weeks ago and they haven’t even sent my vetting on to the NVB, what is the craic with this?
Also they only have 1 other PME in the school and the Principal said I would be needed 5 days a week for cover and stuff like that, is cover really required that much?
There is a lot of schools in the general area I could sub in, a lot of them have been advertising for Irish teachers for years but have been struggling to get them. The only problem is the TC though and how slow they are as it’s a pain getting vetted individually by each school.
Any advice?
