Minimum Qualifications in GC(S)E and GCE AS and A Level Examinations for admission to the Bachelor of Education Degree Course
General
•Six subjects must be presented, at least three subjects at GCE A Level and the remaining subjects at GCE AS or GC(S)E level. The six subjects must include Irish, English and Mathematics.
•A subject may be counted from only one of the examinations, GC(S)E, GCE AS Level or GCE A Level.
•Only subjects taken at one sitting of a particular examination, GC(S)E, GCE AS Level or GCE A Level, will be accepted. Examinations taken in the same academic year are regarded as the same sitting.
Specific requirements in Irish, English & Mathematics.
•Grade C at GCE A level in at least three subjects, including Irish
•Grade C at GC(S)E Level in both English and English Literature, or Grade B at GC(S)E Level in either English or English Literature.
•Grade D at GC(S)E Level in Additional Mathematics or Grade C at GC(S)E Level in Mathematics
•Grade C in one other subject at GC(S)E level
Applicants must satisfy the matriculation requirements of the University to which the Higher Education Institution is affiliated.
Selection Process
Once applicants have satisfied the minimum academic requirements, selection is on the basis of a competitive general Interview and a competitive Oral Irish Examination. Each Institution will e-mail eligible applicants with a link to their supplementary application form and instructions regarding other necessary steps. Each institution will include applicants who have indicated that they are taking a Leaving Certificate/GC(S)E Examination in 2025 as ‘provisionally eligible’ on the basis that their actual Leaving Certificate/GC(S)E results will be unknown and available by September 2025.
The closing date for the return of the completed supplementary application form and attachments to the Institution(s) is 5.00 p.m. on Sunday 30th March 2025.
The results of these tests will be graded and allocated points as follows:
Interview
Total Marks Available = 100 Marks
Pass Mark = 40 Marks
Oral Irish Examination
Total Marks Available = 40 Marks
Pass Mark = 16 Marks
Applicants who have failed the general Interview on two previous occasions are not eligible for the competition. Part of the general Interview may be conducted in Irish.
Information on the general Interview and Oral Irish Examination is available from the Admissions Office - email [email protected]
Applicants who get a "fail" grade in either the general Interview or the Oral Irish Examination are eliminated from the competition. The remaining applicants are placed in an order of merit determined by the results of the general Interview and Oral Irish Examination combined.
There are three separate order-of-merit lists – one common list for Maynooth University's Froebel Department of Primary and Early Childhood Education, one for Marino Institute of Education, one for Dublin City University and a separate list for Mary Immaculate College, Limerick.
Where two or more applicants obtain the same points, their placement on the order of merit will be determined by random selection.
Each Institution will fill its places by reference to the relevant order-of-merit list and offers are made through the CAO using the normal allocation process, working down through the applicant’s preferences to find the highest preference for which the applicant is entitled to receive an offer, if any.
Some high merit applicants will be made offers through the CAO in Round A. The remaining applicants, including those awaiting 2025 examination results, may be made offers through the CAO in Round 1. If necessary, offers may be made in subsequent rounds. The date for issue of Round A and Round 1 offers is yet to be confirmed by the CAO. These dates and other important dates in relation to the CAO application process will be available at this link: Central Applications Office.
Please note that any offer will be subject to fulfilling the minimum entry requirements. An offer by one of the Institutions listed above is subject to the applicant not receiving a higher offer from a Higher Education Institution through the CAO for another course.
Successful applicants who accept places are required to enter the Higher Education Institutions in autumn (actual dates available from the individual Institutions). In special circumstances, at the discretion of the Higher Education Institution authorities, the date of entry may be deferred for a limited period.
Additional Information
1. Proficiency in Irish language:
1.1. Tréimhse Foghlama sa Ghaeltacht (Gaeltacht Learning Period): All students who gain entry to the B.Ed programme are required to complete two placements in the Gaeltacht. Each placement will be of two weeks’ duration. It should be noted that this is a compulsory part of the programme. A grant is payable by the Department of Education for students on State-funded primary initial teacher education programmes to cover the cost of the placements.
1.2. Oral Irish Test: In addition, applicants should note that students will be required to undergo an oral Irish test at the end of their first year of initial teacher education, and must pass this test in order to continue to the second year of the course. Students who fail this oral Irish test may, at the discretion of the Higher Education Institution, be allowed to repeat the test.
2. Student Grants:
SUSI (Student Universal Support Ireland) is Ireland’s single national awarding authority for all higher and further education grants. Students are advised to submit a fully completed online grant application to SUSI so that their eligibility for grant assistance can be assessed. It is anticipated that the 2025/26 Scheme will open for applications in spring 2025. Further information regarding the Student Grant Scheme is available on the SUSI website at www.susi.ie
3. Fitness to Practise:
3.1. Garda Vetting: Before a Higher Education Institution can complete a student registration, the Higher Education Institution requires that all incoming teacher education students undergo a process of Garda vetting in order to establish whether they have any convictions or criminal charges pending. Where this process confirms the existence of such, the matter is referred to a Vetting Committee within the Institution which decides whether the student can continue with his/her programme of study.
3.2. Medical Requirements and Disabilities: Some Higher Education Institutions require that all incoming teacher education students complete a medical information form, indicating whether they have any significant ongoing illnesses or disabilities which might adversely impact their capacity to meet the requirements of the course, including School Placement. Entrants who declare significant health conditions, disabilities or psychological conditions will be assessed on an individual basis to evaluate whether, with reasonable accommodations, they would have the ability to undertake the demands of the programme. Individuals will not be excluded on the grounds that they have a particular condition or disability if it is deemed likely that it would be possible for that person to fulfil the requirements of the course with reasonable accommodation(s). The Higher Education Institutions will advise students as to the procedure to be followed in this regard.

The Nurturing Skills Learner Fund
On 8th December, 2023 the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth, Roderic O’Gorman, announced a pilot of a new Nurturing Skills Learner Fund.
The Nurturing Skills Learner Fund pilot will make a significant contribution to course fees that early years educators face while pursuing QAB-approved ELC qualifications at levels 7 and 8 on the National Framework of Qualifications. The funding will be paid directly to the higher education institution on behalf of the early years educator in order to minimise the financial and administrative barrier the educator faces when seeking to undertake further studies.
More information about the Nurturing Skills Learner Fund pilot is available on the Department's webpages:
