We conclude the series by meeting the four teachers who were presented with their Teachers Inspire award for 2023 at a special event in DCU in May. The awards were presented by our curator, and podcast host, Louise. The awardees for 2023 are: Jill Farrell, a primary school teacher in County Limerick, Joe O'Driscoll, who was a primary school teacher in County Cork, Dublin secondary school teacher Meg Offiah and Ursula O’Mahoney, a primary school teacher in County Tipperary. Two were nominated by parents and the other two by former students. After the event they joined Louise to record this episode, which closes our podcast series.

The teacher who inspired Abbott Elementary

For our penultimate episode we talk to Joyce Abbott, a teacher who inspired a student to name a hit TV series, set in a school, after her! The former student is American comedian and actress Quinta Brunson and the show is Abbott Elementary. As well as popular characters, great scripting and touching storylines, it portrays the huge efforts made by teachers, often with little resources, to do the best for their students. Joyce spoke to Louise from Philadelphia about the programme, her love of teaching, what she recalls about Quinta and why, even though she is retired, she is still passionate about education.

DCU’s unique Teacher Fellowship Programme

Providing teachers with the opportunity to work with student teachers while also progressing their own studies, is at the heart of the Teacher Fellowship Programme. It is a unique programme offered by DCU and the second group of teachers began their fellowship a few months ago. Louise is joined by two of them – primary school teacher Emma Farragher and secondary school teacher Niall Farrell. They tell her why they applied for the fellowship, what they enjoy about it and what they will take from it back to their classrooms.
