Over 100 primary school children from Gaelscoileanna in Dublin 2, 4, 6 and 8 gathered outside the Dáil this morning demanding a Gaelcholáiste be established in their school area so they can access an Irish language secondary education

Tá cúpla duine ar an liosta dána anseo ach táim cinnte go dtiocfadh athrú ar an scéal le bunú Gaelcholáiste i mBÁC 2,4,6,8! 🎅🏻🏫

Amárach beidh na páistí inár nGaelscoileanna ag glacadh páirte i gcomórtais peile lena chéile. Tá siad ar bís!
Níl sa spórt ach ceann de na gnéithe de shaol na scoile a bhfuil súil againn go mbainfidh ár bpáistí taitneamh as le chéile sa Ghaelcholáiste i mBÁC 2468.

An mbeidh do pháiste ag tosú i nGaelscoil go luath?
A nice article outlining what to expect when your child is starting their journey in a Gaelscoil!

GRMA @chrisandrews64.
Coláiste Íosagáin and Coláiste Eoin are at capacity and it is incredibly unrealistic to expect the children especially those from BÁC 2 to travel to Rathfarnham for school.
The solution is a gaelcholáiste in BÁC 2,4,6,8 to serve BÁC 2,4,6,8.

Met @Gaelcholaiste2 campaign & the 100+ students from junior infants to 6th class who came to the Dáil today to call for the establishment of a Gaelcholáiste in the D2,4,6,8 area. I'll continue to follow up with Minister @NormaFoleyTD1 in the near future.

Hundreds protest over ‘broken’ education policy on Irish language

Oisín and Marcus will be lucky enough to join their siblings in Dublin 4’s first gaelscoil @GaelscoilEoin. Like their siblings when they turn 12 they will be told they may no longer learn through their language because there is no #Gaelcholáiste2468
Níl seo maith go leor

As with those in the Gaeltacht, the Irish language is an intrinsic part of the daily life of the young people in our gaelscoileanna. The government/Minister for Education must ensure that our children may continue to learn through their language.
#Gaelcholáiste2468
‘Goodwill towards the language is important, but it is not enough. The urgent task is to ensure that Irish remains a living language. That will involve much stronger support for those for whom it is an intrinsic part of daily life.’

👉Even today, the Government is reducing the amount of time that children spend learning Irish & it is far too difficult to establish a gaelscoil despite high demand for Irish-medium education

The government has promised to double the amount of students attending Irish language schools, but instead 2/3rds of students are quitting the language before they turn 13. Why is this? 1/5 🧵
marguerite sinnott retweeted
There are nearly 200,000 residents in Dublin 2468 but ZERO Irish language secondary schools.
If the area had the same ratio of gaelcholáiste-to-residents as Tralee (the Education Minister’s constituency) there would be seven Irish language secondary schools in D2468.
The language must be facilitated and this means provision of Irish medium second level education.
The state must meet the demand.
Go raibh maith agat @GaryGannonTD. Anois an t-am.

"We can't just as a country cash in on things like the Oscars. There are still some fundamental policy issues that need to be addressed if we're really serious about making sure the language is vibrant for the next generation," Ni Eideain said.

Go raibh maith agat @OCallaghanJim as labhairt faoinár nGaelscoileanna agus an gá atá ann le Gaelcholaiste a bhunú inár scoilcheantar, táimid fíor-bhuíoch as do thacaíocht leanúnach.
Thank you for speaking of our gaelscoileanna's need of a Gaelcholáiste.

Ní réiteach í expanding Coláiste Eoin/Íosagáin or Coláiste an Phiarsaigh
