One of the long running difficulties with education through the Irish language is the critical shortage of educational publications in Irish. Very little progress has been made in making available a wide choice of educational material in the Irish language. Fine Gael in Government will address this as a matter of urgency.

Tá neart déanta ag COGG ina leith seo.

Finally, I can’t emphasis enough the power a modern syllabus can have on the language. Modernising it to make it more relevant for students and teachers with more emphasis on ability to speak the language will be the first priority for a Fine Gael Government.
Agus céard futhú siúd a bhfuil Gaeilge ar a dtoil acu cheana? Iad siúd a d’fhreastal ar an Gaelscoileanna seo a bheidh siad ag fás is ag forbairt? Nó iad siúd a tógadh le Gaeilge cosúil le mo pháistí nó iad siúd a tógadh sa Ghaeltacht? Séard atá de dhíth dóibh siúd ná deiseanna dóibh cur lena bhfoclóir in ionad éirigh bréan den teanga agus í acu cheana féin. Bheinn an-bhuartha faoina leithéid de siollabas.
