  • Important Information for NQTs regarding Cluster Meetings and NIPT Induction Workshops

    Please note the following:

    Cluster Meeting 1, 2 & 3

    Cluster Meetings will be available via Zoom as per the Droichead Cluster Meeting Calendar 2021/2022. This should be read in tandem with Cluster Meetings: Important Information and Attendance Protocols which includes a link to register. Both of these are available on the scrolling news section of www.teacherinduction.ie.

    NQTs must apply for the Droichead process via www.teachingcouncil.ie and receive a confirmation email from the Teaching Council before registering for Cluster Meeting 1. 

    NQTs undertaking the Droichead process are required to complete one Cluster Meeting per term and they must attend Cluster Meeting 1 before attending any subsequent Cluster Meetings.

    Registration for Cluster Meetings continues to be released via Donegal Education Centre.

    Concluding the Droichead Process: Online Droichead Form D Application

    The Teaching Council has advised teachers who have completed Droichead that the Online Droichead Form D Application is now available on www.teachingcouncil.ie.

    Induction Workshops

    A suite of online workshops continues to be available to NQTs: 6 Primary workshops; 7 Post-Primary workshops and 3 Cross-Sectoral workshops.

    Induction workshops are open to all NQTs to support their professional learning. While they are not a requirement of the Droichead process, many NQTs use them as an Additional Professional Learning Activity.

    Please note the addition of Classroom Management and Organisation for Primary NQTs and Stretching All Learners for Post-Primary NQTs to our provision.
