Religious Education and English
Fully qualifies you to teach second level Religious Education and English in just four years. This course offers a streamlined track to a profession in post-primary teaching, qualifying you to teach RE and English to Honours Leaving Certificate Level.
In addition to teacher education, you’ll receive instruction in how to make the most of teamwork, leadership, communication and creativity. Your coursework will also cover Foundational and Professional Studies in Education; Theology, Religious Studies and Ethics; and English Literature. You’ll learn how to think intelligently, imaginatively, and independently about storytelling and song-making in civilization, from classical texts to contemporary pop culture.
English for me was always fascinating; there were great lectures and a wide variety of literature to engage with. Religion, while different to anything I had previously studied, was fascinating and thought provoking. Since graduating I have completed a Masters in Guidance Counselling and I am now working full-time in Wexford as a Guidance Counsellor and teacher of RE and English. I put my career success down to the top-class education I received and the colleges' reputation for training top-quality teachers.
