St Mary’s University College welcomed Irish-medium
teachers, classroom assistants and education partners to the Comhairle
na Gaelscolaíochta annual conference held recently in the
College.
The Minister of Education, Caitríona Ruane, was welcomed
by Seán Ó Coinn, Chief Executive of Comhairle na
Gaelscolaíochta and Dr John Sweeney, Senior Tutor for Academic
Affairs at St Mary’s.
As part of the conference proceedings, the Irish-medium education
team at St Mary’s organised a successful Irish language
course for classroom assistants, the first of a two-day intensive
course on language enhancement.
The occasion was marked by the launch of a new teaching
resource for Fónaic na Gaeilge. This resource
was developed by Jacaí de Brún, Education Officer
with the College Aisaonad lán-Ghaeilge, in partnership
with the Education and Library Boards.
