Message from the Director

On behalf of the Management Committee and staff of the centre I would like to welcome you to the revamped CESC website.

I would like to thank the education community of Cork for their continued support and co-operation as we strive to provide a professional service to the city and county schools and to maintain and develop an excellent quality of service for the users of the Centre.

I am delighted to include on our website Report 1 from the Education Centre Network on Continuing Personal and Professional Development Needs of Teachers in Ireland. All feedback welcome. Click here to view.
