Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs

Arts Sector Funding: Discussion

1:30 pm

Ms Orlaith McBride:

It will help start it. The initiative is being rolled out to 150 schools this year, but there are 3,000 primary schools and 900 secondary schools in the country, so significant resources will be required to roll this out as a national programme. We believe that the programme will be so good that once the first 150 schools experience it, it will become a national programme.
