We hosted a webinar in collaboration with The Education Support Centres Ireland (ESCI) on Why Our Teachers Need to Know Their Law.
You don’t have to be a lawyer to be a teacher but knowledge of the law is essential if you are to survive in an increasingly compliance-driven school context.
At this webinar, our expert speakers discussed your legal obligations including:
- Your duty as an employee
- Your duty of care to students
- Child Protection
- Teaching council code of conduct
- Case studies will be referenced which will help demystify an otherwise complex area
