Joint Committee on the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Irish Speaking Community

Díolúintí i leith Staidéar na Gaeilge sa Mheánscolaíocht: Plé (Atógáil)

Ms Anne Tansey:

We in NEPS very much value children's opportunity to learn Irish alongside of English in schools. Our psychological service has developed a range of resources to support literacy in both English and Irish. We support the development of literacy skills in the Irish language as well as in the English language. We are also in the process of developing a test, the post-primary assessment and diagnosis test, which will be in both the English and Irish languages. We are supporting schools to identify need early and to respond to intervention in the moment. I am sorry; I have lost my train of thought.
