Ireland's International Obligations under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child: Discussion

3:00 pm

Sinead Murray:

I understand teachers do not receive any formal training on the social, personal and health education, SPHE, curriculum. They are just asked whether they can teach the class. A random person on the street would not be asked to teach maths. Why do teachers not need training to teach SPHE when it is so vital to young people for the rest of our lives?
