Hi #edchatie! I'm Trish, a secondary school teacher and AP1 from Mayo. Like many others have mentioned, I believe it's essential for the government to show greater respect for our profession by actively listening to the on-the-ground experiences of teachers.

Excellent editorial in today’s Irish Times on why education barely features in Irish election debate www.irishtimes.com/opinion/edit...
The Irish Times view on the election education debate: manifestos barely scrape a pass
There are issues requiring urgent attention, but they are getting little discussion during the campaign
