About Us
The Politics and Society Teachers’ Association of Ireland (P.A.S.TA.I.) was founded in January 2017 by the Phase 1 pilot teachers from over 40 schools across the country. Our aims are to provide accessible educational resources and local and regional in-service sessions for teachers of Politics and Society. Our association also provides a voice for Politics and Society teachers, via a formal body that enables them to actively liaise with relevant educational partners, such as the Teaching Council, NCCA, PDST, SEC and third-level institutions.
