These sample long term plans will save you countless hours as the content is already pre-populated, so instead of typing everything from scratch, you can simply edit it to suit. Suggested content to cover each month is provided for teachers who are new to a class level or for those who would like some new ideas, but you can easily change this to suit your own circumstances if you desire. Hyperlinks to useful resources such as poems and books are provided.
The sample plans are based solely on the Irish Primary School Curriculum and not on publishersâ schemes (The SPHE plan includes the Stay Safe and RSE programmes for Junior Infants in the suggested content section.). If you are following a particular scheme/ textbook and wish to include the content from it in the plan, most publishers have a document with a monthly breakdown of their content as part of their online resources that you can simply include instead of the table suggesting when to cover material that is provided. This can be done easily and quickly and the rest of the plan would remain largely unchanged and just needs to be tweaked to suit.
Also included in the bundle is a 24-page Aistear long-term plan for the year! The Aistear Yearly Plan gives you a theme for each week, lists 5 stations for that theme, says which subjects are covered at the station, gives a brief description of the station, and lists resources needed.

Do you have sample plans for the new Primary Mathematics Curriculum?
The PMC will be implemented in schools from September 2024. Sample plans will be available on teachingplans.ie once the roll out commences. Plan bundles will be updated to include the updated maths plans in September 2024.
Can I share my download with others/ my school?
Sharing your download with others is strictly prohibited as it is copyrighted material that you have purchased an individual licence for. You are free to edit teachingplans.ie resources that you have purchased for your own use, however reselling or distributing these works in whole or part is strictly forbidden. This also applies to our free resources. If you know another teacher who would like the resource, please refer them to teachingplans.ie
Can I purchase plans with another teacher in my school who is teaching the same class level?/ Can we split the cost if we are both using them?
The cost of a product cannot be split amongst 2 teachers at the same class level. All downloads from teachingplans.ie constitute copyrighted material that and each purchase gives an individual licence for one teacher to use the resources. Where multiple teachers in a school are at the same class level and would like to use the same resource, an individual purchase is necessary for each teacher.
Can you create bespoke plans to suit our school/ my booklist/ the schemes I am using?
Furthermore, our intention is to provide editable sample planning documents that you can easily and quickly customise for your individual class and whatever scheme you are using for different subjects. Much of the plans will remain the same regardless of whatever scheme you are using, and editing it to suit takes a fraction of the time that it would take to type everything from scratch. Editing the plans to suit is an important step for teachers to take in order to ensure they are familiar with the plansâ content as well as their suitability for their individual students.
We do provide suggested content and activities for teachers who are new to a class level or for those who would like some new ideas or who donât rely on publisherâs schemes, but this section can be edited and you can take some or none of the ideas as desired. Also many publishers now have an outline of their schemeâs content as part of their digital resources, so if you wish, you can delete the suggested content provided and include the publisherâs outline with your planning documents instead.
MĂșinteoir EibhlĂn –
The ultimate set of long term plans for junior infant teachers. These plans are so thorough and detailed. They really take the stress out of planning for a junior infant class. They can be easily tweaked to suit your class. The long term English plan has actually enabled me to gain a better understanding of the new curriculum and how it should be used. This plan bundle will save you days sitting in front of the laptop. 10/10 from me. Thank you!
