Maynooth University, Ireland

Niamh Burke

I am a graduate from the BSc Science Education in Maynooth University.

Since graduating I have been working full time as a science, mathematics and biology post primary teacher. I have experience in working with low achieving students in the science and mathematics classroom, which I believe, will benefit me in this project.

 As a student in Maynooth University I took part in SPUR (Summer Programme for Undergraduate Research) working on research into attitudes toward inclusive education among a cohort of Irish pre-service teachers.

 I am interested in the areas of formative assessment, inclusion and special education needs.
