Making best use of the Extra Hour
From September next, schools will have the equivalent of one non-contact hour per week. IPPN is putting together a possible menu of options that you may present to your staff for consultation, and subsequently to your Board of Management for approval. This is a rare opportunity to create time and space where you as Principal can have uninterrupted, high quality time with your staff for planning and organisational purposes. It is critically important that we put best practice in place and harness the opportunities that this hour provides. If you have suggestions on how best to use this time please send your ideas to Páiric Clerkin (pairicclerkin@gmail.com), who is leading this project for the Executive.

Principals Retiring
We wish Principals embarking on this new stage in their lives a happy and fruitful retirement from the ‘front-line’. As school leaders, you have made an enormous contribution to primary education and to your school communities. Now it is time to plan a new course in your life, and all in IPPN wish you success, happiness and good health in whatever you choose to do.
