No, not necessarily.

What you do at leaving cert isn't so important, it's college that counts.

To teach at leaving cert level, you need to do a chem related degree and then a H-dip. With a physics degree and H-dip you can teach leaving cert physics and leaving cert maths. With a Biology related degree and H-dip you can teach leaving cert biology.

The requirements for teaching junior cert are less demanding. A general science degree may suffice.

Alternatively you could do a degree in Science education (my degree yay!) and then you can teach physics, chem, maths, bio, ICT at junior cert level and a choice of two from physics chem maths at leaving cert without having to do the extra years H-dip.
