General Information – Coláiste Éamann Rís
Coláiste Éamann Rís is a vibrant, progressive co-educational secondary school located in the heart of Cork City. At the centre of all we do are our students. We believe they deserve the very best – and we aim to provide it through excellence in teaching, learning, and a rich extra-curricular programme.
We are committed to recruiting teachers who are genuinely passionate about working with young people, both inside and outside the classroom.
We seek educators who are:
• Enthusiastic and knowledgeable about their subject areas
• Energetic, dynamic, and innovative in their approach
• Capable of delivering engaging, interactive lessons that both inspire and challenge
Our teachers must demonstrate a range of strategies and interventions to ensure classwork and homework are appropriately differentiated for all abilities.
Effective classroom management is essential. Teachers are expected to build positive relationships with students based on mutual respect and should be skilled at anticipating and managing potential disruptions.
Professional Collaboration and Development
Coláiste Éamann Rís places a strong emphasis on teamwork and reflective practice. Our school promotes:
• Team teaching opportunities
• A structured peer observation programme
• An open, supportive culture of feedback and professional growth
Applicants must be collaborative in nature and committed to continuous improvement in their teaching practice.
Commitment to School Life
Volunteerism is a central part of our school culture. All staff are encouraged and expected to become actively involved in extra-curricular or co-curricular activities. Our annual Clubs and Societies Day ensures every student finds something to engage with outside of class time.
Co-curricular engagement also includes participation in key school committees such as:
• The Positive Behaviour Strategy Team
• The Teaching, Learning and Assessment Team
• The Literacy and Numeracy Teams
These groups play a vital role in implementing whole-school initiatives aligned with our DEIS Plan, and all teachers are assigned to a DEIS committee.
DEIS and Inclusion
As a designated DEIS school, we are seeking teachers who are passionate about supporting students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Candidates should demonstrate:
• A deep understanding of the challenges these students may face
• A commitment to equity in education
• A willingness to contribute to the ongoing development of the school's DEIS strategy
Working at Coláiste Éamann Rís
With over 700 students and 100 staff, Coláiste Éamann Rís is a busy and fast-paced environment. Strong interpersonal and communication skills are essential, as teachers must be able to engage effectively with a diverse and dynamic staff team.
As a proud Edmund Rice school, we expect all staff to uphold and model the values of Blessed Edmund Rice throughout their time with us. Candidates invited to interview should familiarise themselves with the Edmund Rice Schools Trust Charter.
