National Parents Council Primary recruits Partnership Schools Ireland Programme Coordinator to work full time based in Dublin.
Context:
Partnership Schools Ireland is a joint initiative established by the National Parents Council and the Irish Primary Principal Network.

Partnership Schools Ireland has now 35 trained schools nationwide. Each school that is a member of Partnership Schools Ireland follows a specific programme that is organised by the school’s Action Team for Partnership (ATP).
It is an opportunity for teachers, support staff, pupils, parents and community members to work together to discuss the current work of the school as outlined in the school’s improvement plan and to find ways to enhance this work, from a variety of view- points ultimately for the benefit of the students. This work is carried in a school by an “Action Team Partnership” (ATP). The model for this evidence-based programme originated in America and is coordinated by the National Network of Partnership Schools in Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore under the leadership of Dr. Joyce Epstein.
