Did the Women in Your Family Teach in a Primary School?

Posted 12 August, 2025

Professor Maria Luddy (University of Warwick) and Professor Judith Harford (University College Dublin) are working on a book exploring the lives of Irish women national school teachers between 1890 and 1950. They would love to hear from anyone with material that could help bring this history to life, such as diaries, letters, photographs, or other artefacts. If you have information or items you would be willing to share, please contact (opens in a new window)judith.harford@ucd.ie.
