Welcome to the SLSS Maths and Sciences Pillar Group.

New Service Provision for Teachers

The Second Level Support Service (SLSS) extend its gratitude to all of you that supported the work of the service throughout the years since its establishment in 2001. A new cross - sectoral service, the Professional Development Service for Teachers  (PDST) will be established in September 2010. The PDST will subsume much of the work of the SLSS. Details regarding this new service will be communicated with schools in due course.

The SLSS is happy to inform you that the resources, materials and functionalities of this website will continue to be available to you in the future.

The service is administered by Limerick Education Centre. [Tel. 061 437999, Email sciences@slss.ie ] with Home Economics administered by Co Wexford Education Centre.

We aim to identify and disseminate good teaching and learning strategies which will enhance the classroom experience for you and your students. To ensure that you are notified about all relevant Courses register your contact details on your subject website or email to sciences@slss.ie   in order to be informed.  I invite you to have your say on curriculum issues and resources on the subject website forum.

 If you are an experienced teacher who is passionate about your subject and wish to work with like minded colleagues I invite you to apply to become a local facilitator. Local Facilitators are teachers who are willing to volunteer to contribute to CPD in their subject or programme areas or other areas where they have expertise and a willingness to contribute. If you wish to become a Local Facilitator in the SLSS Maths and Sciences Group, please email timregan@slss.ie

 The subject websites will be continually updated and contain details of upcoming support courses and evaluated classroom resources. If you use active teaching and learning strategies or have generated a classroom resource which you wish to share with colleagues, please contact me.
