    Hi,
    I have secured a place on a Secondary teaching PGCE course in Brighton uni doing business education. When I return to Ireland after the course is completed would it be difficult to register with the teaching council. i have rang the teaching council and they have advised me that there is no guarantee of the course being recognised that I would have to wait until I return to submit all the Pgce details. However I know I am eligible to teach as my degree is on the approved list of courses and I have sent off to get some of my subjects recognised.
    Has anyone done the Secondary PGCE over in the Uk, and would you recommend it, did you find it difficult to obtain a teaching position after you returned, did you find the training difficult etc?

    Also what way does the salary scale work for post primary teachers. Do you start to move up the scale once you are qualified and in a school, or does it only increase once you secure a permanent position in a school. As I am aware of what the teaching job market is like at the moment in terms of the lack of permanent teaching jobs. Thank you for your time.
