DE Fortnightly Update
- Published: 23 June 2022
The Department of Education now issues a fortnightly update during term-time, compiling the key circulars, information notes, press releases and other materials published in the previous two weeks.
This has come about as a result of ongoing advocacy and representation work by IPPN, unions, Patron bodies and others, working with the DE on the Primary Education Forum and also on the Communications Sub-committee.
This new update is intended to support school leaders, to ensure that they do not miss out on important information.
Materials will also continue to be issued to schools via email and through alerts on the OLCS Esinet portal.
Please ensure that the email address for your school is up-to-date on POD, as this is the distribution list used.
The email update comes from schoolcommunications@education.gov.ie This is a broadcast-only email address, so should not be used for queries to the Department, which can be sent to the relevant section.
The update will issue once each month in July and August, and will resume fortnightly in September.
