Background
In recent years, teacher shortages in Ireland’s public education system have worsened. Various factors may be contributing to the shortages. Despite efforts to address the issue, teacher shortages persist, and there is still no clear consensus among Irish educational stakeholders regarding their causes or the most effective solutions.
The project ‘Strategic Workforce Planning for Teachers in Ireland’ began in August 2024 and will be implemented for two years until August 2026. It is implemented by UNESCO, in cooperation with the Department of Education and Youth and the European Commission and it is funded by the European Union via the Technical Support Instrument. It aims to achieve the following outcomes:
- Enhanced consensus among relevant stakeholders regarding challenges to the teaching profession and measures to improve the teacher workforce planning in Ireland;
- The results of the project will be used by the Department of Education and Youth to develop a strategy on the improvement of teacher workforce planning.
About the peer learning workshop
The goal of the workshop is for Irish educational stakeholder to learn about measures utilised by other countries to address teacher supply issues, so as to identify practices which may be relevant to the Irish system.
