Program details

Overview

This three-year professional learning programme in Gaelic education builds on the Streap course, which ran in partnership with a Scottish university. It is delivered wholly in Gaelic and aims at practitioners who want to strengthen their own language and their classroom practice in immersion settings. Topics include immersion pedagogy, research and policy in Gaelic-medium education, developing pupils' language proficiency, supporting diverse learners, and building Gaelic culture into the curriculum. Participants also complete practitioner enquiry to improve their teaching. Most study is online and fits around professional commitments, with fortnightly online activities and one face-to-face day at the start of each academic year. Participants can leave with a certificate or diploma and return later to complete the full award. Its structure lets practitioners balance study with classroom responsibilities.
