Mathematics for Teaching

This is a bespoke programme designed to upskill out-of field registered post-primary mathematics teachers to meet current Teaching Council curricular subject requirements in Mathematics at the highest level. ‘Out-of-field’ mathematics teachers are those who are teaching mathematics whose qualification is NOT in the field of Mathematics’.

Applicants should be a qualified post-primary teacher, fully registered with the Teaching Council Registration Regulation 4 of the Teaching Council (Registration) Regulations 2009 up to 25th July 2016 or Route 2 of the Teaching Council (Registration) Regulations 2016 and The Teaching Council (Registration) (Amendment) Regulations 2016 thereafter and can provide proof of registration. Applicants must complete the declaration form confirming their existing qualifications are not sufficient to meet Teaching Council criteria for the purposes of teaching mathematics at post-primary level. Other Entry Considerations: We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet the standard entry requirements, as long as you can show that you have the knowledge, skills, and experience needed for the programme. At UL, we value all kinds of learning and support different ways to qualify through our Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) policy.
