Education System
As study in Ireland consultants, we inform students that the Irish Education System was traditionally divided into three basic levels: Primary (8 years), Secondary (5 or 6 years) and Higher Education, which offers a wide range of opportunities from post-secondary courses, to vocational and technical training, to full degree and the highest post-graduate levels.
The higher education system in Ireland is broad in scope and encompasses the University sector, the Technological sector, the Colleges of Education and Private and Independent colleges. The institutions which fall within the first three groupings are autonomous and self-governing, but substantially state funded. Education has been a key factor in making Ireland one of the fastest growing economies in the world over the past decade.
“Cooperative Education” involves placement of students in employment relevant to their Degree programmes for six or eight months during their undergraduate studies. Some Institutions in Ireland adopt this model as an integral part of the academic programme, which is an alluring prospect to Indian students in Ireland.
