Those of us in Irish education used to have a civilised hour's Mon evening discussion each week 'over there' under the aegis of the excellent Fred Boss.

This evening fire in comments with #edchatie too & let's see where we are.

100 teachers in Ireland in this list now.

A suggestion: a revival of the #edchatie one hour discussion, once every fortnight, on matters of interest in Irish education. New proposer and host every time.

Interested? Please repost.
