A major new development in teacher education is being announced this week, with a first-of-its-kind pathway into primary teaching being launched in the Mid-West.
Led by Mary Immaculate College in partnership with Tipperary ETB and Limerick and Clare ETB, the initiative aims to widen access to the profession and support a more diverse generation of future teachers.
Joining Alan Morrissey on Friday's Morning Focus was Dr Maurice Harmon to explain what it means for students and the education sector.
