  • Steiner Waldorf Education and the Irish Primary Curriculum: a Time of Opportunity

    Steiner Waldorf Education and the Irish Primary Curriculum: a Time of Opportunity

    Steiner Waldorf Education and the Irish Primary Curriculum: A Time of Opportunity By Jonathan Angus At The Institute of Technology Sligo Supervised by Doireann O’Connor A Thesis Submitted to the Higher Education and Training Awards Council for the Award of Masters of Arts July 2011 1 Abstract The object of this research was to study the implications of Steiner Waldorf pedagogy delivered in National Schools, and to consider both its viability and usefulness. This research used both qualitative and quantitative methods of primary and secondary research. A review was carried out of the literature of the Waldorf movement internationally and specific to Ireland. A history of the Waldorf movement in Ireland, as well as a brief overview of the history of Irish publicly funded education, were both created from published literature, schools' records, and websites. Interviews were conducted with all of the full time teachers at both of the temporarily recognised Steiner National Schools, Mol an Oige and Raheen Wood. Data was compiled that showed a significant drop in the Steiner Waldorf-specific background and training of newly hired teachers at the two schools over the three years since recognition, resulting today in the majority of teachers lacking any previous Steiner Waldorf training. In fulfilling this objective, it was found that the value system of Steiner schools can be a useful addition to the options created for the families of Ireland. The general aims of the Primary School Curriculum were found to be in complete accord with those of the Steiner Waldorf approach, and multiple aspects of Waldorf pedagogy were identified which can be employed to deliver the curriculum in a vibrant and creative way.

    The Jim Kemmy Papers P5 University of Limerick Library and Information Services University of Limerick Special Collections The Jim Kemmy Papers Reference Code: IE 2135 P5 Title: The Jim Kemmy Papers Dates of Creation: 1863-1998 (predominantly 1962-1997) Level of Description: Fonds Extent and Medium: 73 boxes (857 folders) CONTEXT Name of Creator: Kemmy, Seamus (Jim) (1936-1997) Biographical History: Seamus Kemmy, better known as Jim Kemmy, was born in Limerick on 14 September, 1936, as the eldest of five children to Elizabeth Pilkington and stonemason Michael Kemmy. He was educated at the Christian Brothers’ primary school in Sexton Street and in 1952 followed his father into the Ancient Guild of Incorporated Brick and Stonelayers’ Trade Union to commence his five-year apprenticeship. When his father died of tuberculosis in 1955, the responsibility of providing for the family fell onto Kemmy’s shoulders. Having qualified as a stonemason in 1957, he emigrated to England in the hope of a better income. The different social conditions and the freedom of thought and expression he encountered there challenged and changed his traditional Catholic values and opened his eyes to the issues of social injustice and inequality, which he was to stand up against for the rest of his life. In 1960, encouraged by the building boom, Kemmy returned to Ireland and found work on construction sites at Shannon. He also became involved in the Brick and Stonelayers’ Trade Union, and was elected Branch Secretary in 1962. A year later, he joined the Labour Party. Kemmy harboured no electoral ambitions during his early years in politics.

    Academic Quality Assurance in the DIT

    Chapter 11 Academic Quality Assurance in the DIT At its formal establishment in 1970, the Academic Council was given the general functions of planning, co-ordinating and developing third level education in the CDVEC colleges. Since that time, it has contributed to the academic work of the colleges, particularly in the areas of course de­ velopment and validation, examination procedures and the promotion of research. It brought about improved co-ordination of approach and stimu­ lated discussion about developments in higher education affecting the operation of the colleges. QuALITY AssuRANCE PROCEDURES OF THE AcADEMIC CouNCIL In order to assist it in carrying out its work, the Academic Council estab­ lished a number of subcommittees and working groups to report on spe­ cific educational and related issues and this contributed to the formula­ tion and adoption ofDIT's educational policies. These included examina­ tion regulations, appeals procedures, admissions requirements, transfer procedures, research, development and consultancy policies, reviews of DIT courses and their awards, special awards for students who demon­ strated academic excellence, staff development and postgraduate studies. The work of these subcommittees and working groups assisted the Aca­ demic Council in developing procedures for the peer review of programmes and the general enhancement of academic standards in programmes lead­ ing to DIT awards.
