The Sunday Times Guide to Secondary Schools in Ireland by Colm Murphy,Daniel McConnell Pdf
Every year, 60,000 individuals are faced with a big decision: To which secondary school should I send my child? The factors affecting that decision are changing and it is crucial that parents find out as much as possible to figure out the best options. Until now, comprehensive information about every secondary school and its performance hasn't been readily available. But now, building on its ground-breaking annual survey of second level schools in Ireland, the same team has produced The Sunday Times Guide to Secondary Schools in Ireland. This compendium gives parents a chance to assess the merits of the 743 secondary schools in the Republic of Ireland in a range of key areas from academic performance to availability of extra-curricular activities. This is the only guide to Irish secondary schools - a comprehensive and essential tool so that Irish parents can make informed decisions on behalf of their children.
Piety and Privilege by Tom O'Donoghue,Judith Harford Pdf
For centuries, the Catholic Church around the world insisted it had a right to provide and organize its own schools. It decreed also that while nation states could lay down standards for secular curricula, pedagogy, and accommodation, Catholic parents should send their children to Catholic schools and be able to do so without suffering undue financial disadvantage. Thus, from the Pope down, the Church expressed deep opposition to increasing state intervention in schooling, especially during the nineteenth century. By the end of the 1920s however, it was satisfied with the school system in only a small number of countries. Ireland was one of those. There, the majority of primary and secondary schools were Catholic schools. The State left their management in the hands of clerics while simultaneously accepting financial responsibility for maintenance and teachers' salaries. During the period 1922-1967, the Church, unhindered by the State, promoted within the schools' practices aimed at 'the salvation of souls' and at the reproduction of a loyal middle class and clerics. The State supported that arrangement with the Church also acting on its behalf in aiming to produce a literate and numerate citizenry, in pursuing nation building, and in ensuring the preparation of an adequate number of secondary school graduates to address the needs of the public service and the professions. All of that took place at a financial cost much lower than the provision of a totally State-funded system of schooling would have entailed. Piety and Privilege seeks to understand the dynamic between Church and State through the lens of the twentieth century Irish education system.

Teaching Irish Independence by John O'Callaghan Pdf
This book examines the role of history teaching in Irish secondary schools in the period 1922-72. It assesses what objectives were the most important in history teaching and what interests school history was designed to serve. The emphasis is on the political, cultural, social and economic factors that determined the content of the history curriculum and its development. The primary focus is on the politics and policy of history teaching, including the respective contributions of church and state to the formulation of the history programmes. It is argued that a particular view of Ireland’s past as a Gaelic, Catholic-nationalist one informed the ideas of policy makers and thus provided the basis of state education policy, and history teaching specifically. The conclusion drawn is that history teaching was used by elite interest groups, namely the state and the church, in the service of their own interests. It was used to justify the state’s existence and employed as an instrument of religious education. History was exploited in the pursuit of the objectives of the cultural revival movement, being used to legitimise the restoration of Irish as a spoken language.
