In April 2023, the Minister for Education Norma Foley TD invited primary schools to apply to participate in the Say Yes to Languages module in the 2023/24 school year. The Say Yes to Languages sampler module introduces primary pupils to a new language, by facilitating schools to introduce either a Modern Foreign Language (MFL) of their choice or Irish Sign Language (ISL). The module runs for eight weeks across one academic term and takes place within the normal timetable. We are delighted to inform you that we have been successful in our application and Spanish will be offered to 3rd, 5th & 6th class initially. Further information will be included in next week’s newsletter after all the information and training sessions have been attended.
