Adapting to Diversity: Irish Schools and Newcomer Students

The transition from primary to post-primary education is a crucial time in young people's lives. Moving Up, the first major study of its kind in Ireland, presents the views of the key people involved in the process, including school principals, teachers, parents and students themselves, and examines the ways in which schools can ease the transition to post-primary education.

Moving Up: The Experiences of First-Year Students in Post-Primary Education

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore the factors associated with occupational stress and job satisfaction among Irish primary school principals. A principal’s job has become increasingly demanding and complex in recent decades. However, there is little current research into their levels of stress and job satisfaction, particularly based on nationally representative data. In order to understand how principals perceive their job and how best to support them, new insights into factors contributing to job satisfaction and stress of school principals are warranted. Design/methodology/approach – The paper draws on an analysis of Growing up in Ireland data, a national representative study of nine-year-old children in Ireland. In order to explore the simultaneous impact of individual and school factors on stress and job satisfaction of principals in Irish primary schools, multivariate analysis was used. Analyses in this paper are based on responses from principals in 898 schools. Findings – The resul...

The recent global economic crisis has brought renewed attention to the difficulties faced by young people in securing stable employment In addition, rising post-school educational participation has raised new challenges around ensuring a more seamless transition from one stage to the next Thus post-school transitions have assumed an increasing importance in the policy agenda This report presents the findings of the 'Leaving School in Ireland' study which collected detailed information on post-school pathways and experiences thus allowing the authors to link school experiences to post-school outcomes in the Irish context In addition, this study provides new evidence on how young people experience the transition from second-level education to further/higher education and the labour market

Leaving School in Ireland: A Longitudinal Study of Post-School Transitions

A growing number of international studies document the importance of regular school attendance. There is a consensus among authors that absenteeism has negative implications for academic achievement as well as the social development of the child and may put them at a disadvantage in terms of their position in the education and labour market. Most of the existing studies have focused on school absenteeism among adolescents with studies on poor school attendance among young children relatively rare. This paper addresses this gap in research by exploring factors that are related to school absenteeism in Irish primary schools. Drawing on a nationally representative study of nine-year-olds, it demonstrates the complexity of the issue. The findings indicate that a combination of institutional and individual factors shape patterns of poor school attendance in Irish primary schools. While the data relate to the Irish situation, the paper raises a number of issues of interest to an international audience.
