This year’s SCoTENS Research Webinar took place on 13 March 2024 online. 

The event was aimed at members of SCoTENS and comprised the following: presentations by a small group of team members who have been successful in recent SCoTENS funded projects; the launch of our Annual Report by Prof Linda Clarke, Emeritus Professor, Ulster University and the presentation of this year’s John Coolahan by Prof Noel Purdy, Director of Research and Scholarship; Director of CREU (the Centre for Research in Educational Underachievement); Head of Education Studies at Stranmillis University College Belfast to the authors of the Seed Funding Report which is recognised to be the most in line with the values and ideals of SCoTENS.  This years successful team was Dr Gabrielle Nig Uidhir and Dr T.J. Ó Ceallaigh for their project TCL-IME – Developing Teacher and Leadership Capacity in Irish-Medium Education:  An Analysis of Immersion-Specific Competencies. The last part of the evening was a short Q&A session to support potential applicants to this year’s seed funding programme.
