Fantastic day at the Savour Food Festival in Kilkenny today…. we even bumped into some hardworking friends Mags @goatsbridge and Stephen @Goodelife @SavourKilkenny

Good dicussion of ECEC @TodaywithClaire but stop using the term childcare worker. It is demeaning and does not signify the complexity or importance of working with children in their most formstive years. There is a retention crisis. Pay matters as does respect for the profession

📢 I am doing my doctoral research in @DCU and I want to talk to teachers in their 2nd or 3rd year working in DEIS Band-1 primary schools. If this sounds like you, your experiences & insights would be invaluable 🙌 Please repost. Thank you. 😊 #DEIS #edchatie #PrimaryTeachers

@_TrishCarolan @oasis Too funny Trish! Chip off the aul block 😉Hope yourself and @MaireLove1 enjoy the concert 🎸🎸

@SusanEHennessy Huge congratulations Susan and Paul, brilliant results!! 👏👏🥳

Delighted with our home bred, reared and trained 'Charlie'

@_TrishCarolan @dcu_incl_spe @DCU_IoE Not a bad bunch 😉 great to see you Trish x

@AlisonKenneally @SETUIreland Congrats Alison 🙌

AIM is a positive step in ECEC but some children need more than currently available & having lobbied, @DeptCDE are just ignoring these children's needs & children that are pre ECCE. If gov talks inclusion they need to support it meaningfully @NormaFoleyTD1 midlands103.com/news/midlands-…

Pleased to see my article ‘Inclusion of higher education disabled students: a Q-methodology study of lecturers’ attitudes’ published in this new issue of TiHE. The findings have implications for training on ableism awareness and anti-ableist pedagogies.

Our @DCU_IoE Doctor of Education is running in 2025, & interest has been fantastic! A blended, flexible doctorate designed for professionals in education & related fields, with a vibrant learning community. Apply before 17/04/25 @DCU @DCU_Research dcu.ie/courses/postgr…

@AngelaCahill29 @esai_irl @DCU_IoE @janemurnaghan @FETRC_DCU @mellynch87 @DCU_IoE_PGSR Well done Angela 🙌 💕

I am over the moon to announce that I successfully defended my PhD thesis today & passed pending minor changes. A huge thank you must go to my 3 supervisors @NiamhCMcCrea Dr. Lillian Byrne & @DrSheilaLong who each played an integral role in my research journey. @SETU_Research

@MuireannRanta @dcu_incl_spe @DCU_IoE I was hoping they would give me some inspiration when I looked at things from a different angle with the glasses on 😂. Why does anyone have 3 pairs of glasses 🤷‍♀️… only Siobhán 🤣

@lasesta @dcu_incl_spe @DCU_IoE 3 pairs of glasses 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I must mean business when I moved out of the office to the kitchen for the weekend and brought three pairs of glasses, the UDL 3.0 guidelines, the updated Aistear and some books with me 😂🙈….. #nearlythere #EdD #changeofscene @dcu_incl_spe @DCU_IoE

1st year ECEC students @NCIRL creating storyboards today in class to promote healthy nutrition for children… great fun, laughter and creativity…. Well done all 🙌 #loveteaching #ECEC

@DCU I agree! DCU certainly nurtures talents through their incredible scaffolding, guidance, supports, leadership, learning opportunities, networking and much much more! I highly recommend their EdD programme…Applications open today I think…just go for it 🙌 @alangorman22 @DCU_IoE
