The evaluation of teachers’ performance and teaching and learning methods is necessary and has the purpose of being a basis for continuous improvement of education and the dialogue between teachers and students. The process of continuous evaluation of the quality of education is indispensable when it comes to ensuring high quality education, and should thus be guaranteed by education authorities and school management.
Evaluation of quality with the aim to assess the standard of education should be accompanied by clear and binding guidelines concerning the involvement of all stakeholders in education when the initiation, execution, interpretation of results and the follow-up of an evaluation are concerned. In order for the evaluation of teachers’ performance, teaching and learning methods to serve its purpose, the results of the evaluation must be followed up and used as a part of further development of schools and education. read full story / add a comment

The protest is being called by Residents Against Racism

Another protest is planned for 23rd March outside Dail Eireann at 12.30.

Two women from Athlone with a child each in their care are presently being brought to Dublin Airport. Some of their kids are not with them.

People are being picked up from all over country.

Residents against Racism reckon it will be a large number in total and that most likely the Gardai etc have chartered a plane.

A Woman from Mill Street resident here for four and a half years who is sick and disabled (she was taken ill at Burgh Quay last week) with two daughters in school here one in primary and one in secondary is in custody en route to Dublin airport. This is despite her having huge support in favour of her remaining from her community.

On the 11th of March, those Irish citizens of counties Meath and North Kildare were called to vote in a secret ballot, as is their right for living in a tippy toppy emergent democracy, regardless of Ethnic origin, Religious Creed, Social Economic class, or Gender.
( but only if they actually live there, and pay or don't pay tax there, as the tippy toppy emergent democracy of Eire doesn't afford its citizens postal votes.)
Out they came in their handfuls.
Leaping over the primroses and daffodils, pushing aside the lobbying publicans to exercise the rights so sorely won and desperately needed in far off places. read full story / add a comment
