I am one of the parents whose child did not get a place in Colaiste Cois Life for September 2014 as the school has reached its capacity. Like Deputy Stagg said I do not consider the Aonad as an option and not supporting it is not demonstrating a lack of desire to have my child taught through the medium of Irish but that I want my children taught through full immersion of not only the language but the culture. Unless there is some resolution to this I do not have what I consider adequate provision for my child to progress on into post primary level. I also was under the impression the as parents we have a choice in the way in which we would like our children educated, this is not the case!!!!
