Welcome to the official website of Speech and Drama Teachers of Ireland - a dedicated professional community supporting excellence in communication, performance and creative education across Ireland.
The Speech and Drama Teachers of Ireland was founded in 1982 and is a professional membership organisation for qualified and trainee teachers of Speech and Drama.
As a non-for-profit organisation, run by a voluntary board, we were formed to encourage and promote the highest standards of teaching within the Speech and Drama field, to connect teachers of communication, performance and life skills and to act as a voice of the profession.
*Ignite Your Passion, Forge Your Path.
For over 40 years, we have been the heartbeat of Speech and Drama in Ireland, representing a growing network of qualified educators and passionate performers. Founded to promote the highest standards of teaching and professional practice, Speech and Drama Teachers of Ireland provides a supportive network where teachers can connect, collaborate and grow.
We are committed to ongoing professional development, sharing best practice and advocating for the vital role that speech and drama education plays in personal development and the wider cultural life of Ireland.
