I literally have no idea anymore and feeling pretty fed up. I have a degree, pgce, special needs qualification and tefl and registered with the Irish teaching council. I qualified years ago but worked in the Uk and UAE for years.
I’ve been back in Ireland a few years now. I’ve had kids over the last 8 years and have been working private tutoring but would love a job in a school . I have absolutely no idea how plp get jobs here. I’ve applied for loads but don’t even get an interview and I’d genuinely love an sna role having some personal interest in this too but again can’t even get an interview.
I’ve volunteered etc also in lots of areas. Everyone I speak to says it’s all “who you know” in Ireland and I guess that’s my problem, I’m not from the area I live so have no connections...
I mean I go on education posts and there’s three jobs advertised in my whole county!? How is that even possible? I don’t want to move away again as my dcs are very settled and happy here but I miss the process of applying for a job and having loads to choose from. Genuinely baffled as to how I can get work here. Even straight after my hdip I applied for loads all year all over Ireland and never even got a interview here so moved abroad. Do plp really just walk into schools and ask to talk to principals, a few plp have suggested this to me..
