please help

Hi,

I wonder if somebody might be able to help me,

I wish to pursue a career in primary teaching as a mature student,
I originally completed my leaving in 2000,
But I need honours Irish and one other honour subject to meet the entry requirements for Mary I,

Please could somebody tell me is there any night or day course provider in Kerry (or I am willing to travel) that does the leaving cert?

I have tried VTOS and several colleges,
They are either ignoring my constant emails or do not do the Irish for the leaving cert,

I know I’m too late for the 2008 leaving,
But If I knew of a course provider I could approach them for 2009,

Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks in advance

Hey porte,

I'm not too knowledgeable about primary teaching myself, but I do remember the online primary teaching qualification called Hibernia (details here: http://www.hiberniacollege.net/Default.aspx?tabid=62).

I see you've a thread on this in distance and part-time students... I'm going to copy this thread over to the Teaching/Lecturing forum too, as they're probably more knowledgeable on this subject. This one will be left here though, in case someone else can contribute to it.

Edit: The teaching & lecturing thread is here: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055146202
