    Hi everyone,

    I am a 26 year old male and I completed a B.A Degree in NUIG finishing in 2009 in History and Politics. Following this I decided to do some travelling, lived in London for almost 2 years, and currently I am living in Australia. it was always my intention to return to do my h dip but I am finding it difficult to research info from here.

    I havnt got a great result in my degree but i have a b grade in higer irish in the leaving cert. Basically I am considering moving home to pursue my dream to be a primary school teacher. There are a few obstacles to this

    1. Am I still eligible for a grant?
    2. How difficult is it to secure a place on one of the primary h dip courses? I have helped out in my local primary school as a sub the odd day etc
    3 If anyone has been to the UK studying maybe they could shed some light on how to about doing this?

    Being so far from home I am finding it extremly difficult to get in touch with anyone from colleges etc,:confused: i know that most courses start in feb of next year?

    Any bit of help at all would be very greatly appreciated

    Thanks so much guys:)
