NACED in the 21St Century NACED in the 21st Century argued strongly that the Director of Adult Education post was linked to that of Deputy Principal which was exempt from the moratorium. NACED worked closely with the ASTI and TUI and put forward a motion supporting our campaign at the ACCS Conference in March 2010. This motion was passed unanimously. After a yearlong campaign, in July 2010 Minister for Education Mary Coughlan issued Circular 42/2010 which essentially removed the Director of Adult Education post from the moratorium. NACED was very pleased to see that Circular 42/2010 contained a section titled ‘Director of Adult Education at Deputy Principal Level’. Our contention was that the post of Director of Adult Education was linked to the post of Deputy Principal and therefore should have been exempt from the moratorium. Critically, there were now two Department Circulars, 46/2000 and 42/2010, confirming this link. However, there followed a nine month delay in the implementation of Circular 42/2010. In November 2010, the then Labour Spokesperson for Education, Ruairi Quinn TD, gave an address entitled ‘A Vision for Adult Education in a Time of Recession’ at our Annual Conference. NACED members informed him that the delay in implementing Circular 42/2010 would effectively end the The Future provision of adult education in Community and Comprehensive At the time of writing, NACED’s membership has dropped below schools. forty. A variety of factors have contributed to this: very few Community and Comprehensive schools have opened in the last Within three months, Mr. Quinn was appointed as Minister for number of years; delays in or the non-replacement of retiring Education and Skills. In January 2011, NACED embarked on an Directors; and Adult Education being considered as an ‘optional intensive round of communication to harness support for the extra’ in Community and Comprehensive schools. This view of implementation of Circular 42/2010. Finally in May 2011, the adult education is in direct contrast to the documents which logjam was cleared and faour NACED schools were given the go founded Community and Comprehensive schools in the early ahead to appoint replacement Directors of Adult Education.

Joint Further Education Representative Group (JFERG) At the NACED conference in November 2010, Finola Butler from the Further Education Service (FESS) informed members about Validated Programmes and FETAC Awards. Ms Butler was giving similar presentations to teachers who were running Post Leaving Certificate (PLC) courses in Joint Managerial Body (JMB) secondary schools. During discussions subsequent to the NACED conference, it was suggested that future FESS presentations should be made jointly to the relevant teachers from ACCS and JMB schools. Further meetings took place and, in June 2014, a Memorandum of Understanding on Joint Engagement with Certain Aspects of Further Education was agreed by representatives of NACED, ACCS and JMB. This JFERG will have the authority to represent JMB and ACCS schools which provide further education in negotiations and discussions with the Department of Education, SOLAS, QQI, FESS, and Education and Training Boards Ireland (ETBI).

Mayfield Community School was the first school to offer adult education in 1976, followed shortly by Douglas, Ballincollig, Ashton, Bishopstown, and Carrigaline. On a purely voluntary basis, and supported by their principals, those running adult education in the six schools agreed to meet once a month to pool ideas and agree a collaboration that lasts to this day. The schools agreed that they would not compete with each other and would advertise night classes as a unit. In addition, the schools agreed to the training and sharing of tutors. If a class could not run in one school, the students and tutor would be referred to the nearest community school. Significantly, the community schools run a shared stand at the annual Adult Education Adult education directors in Cork (from left to right): Jerry O’ Mahony, Douglas Community School; Gene Cahill, Exhibition in Cork’s City Hall. In addition, the six schools Carrigaline Community School; John O’Sullivan, Ashton have a joint open evening in Cork and all night classes Comprehensive School; Anne-Marie Daly, Ballincollig Community School.

In the late 1980s, early 1990s, the directors of adult education in Cork identified financial accountability as an issue given the amounts of cash that were being generated by the success of the night class programmes. Protocols were established around record-keeping and transparency and subsequently led to the use of online booking. Serving almost 5000 night class participants each year, it’s clear that this model of collaboration in Cork works. Night classes appeal to all ages.

Last year, I fulfilled a lifelong ambition of visiting the Holy Land for two weeks and what a lesson in Religion, Politics, History and Geography that was!

However, as Ireland began to enjoy the prosperity of the Celtic Tiger years, demand for courses changed. We were now putting on courses in Spanish and French as we abandoned the caravan park in Rosses Point and headed for sunnier climates. Aerobics and toning, beauty and skincare, and style coaching were now in popular demand and even some reflexology just to keep the head clear. Alas the Tiger years didn’t last and the dreaded ‘R’ word - recession - arrived.

The cornerstone of my agenda for my year in office was to seek to protect those most vulnerable in our society. For my term of office, I focused on the proposed supported temporary accommodation project for the County and issues surrounding mental health and wellbeing. I have worked with the County Manager and her senior officials so that these priorities have been mainstreamed into the day to day activities of the Council. From the day I took office, I have received so many wonderful invitations from residents, groups and organisations that play a vital role in communities throughout South Dublin County. In particular, I have enjoyed meeting the young people of the county through my visits to local schools, youth organisations and consulting with Comhairle Na nÓg.
