Supplementary Pre-Budget Submission with regard to Straitéis na Gaeilge Priorities for the All-Irish Schools Sector

Conclúid / Introduction
Tá dualgais ar ETBanna ar leith chun tacú leis na scoielanna faoina gcúraim.
Tá sé den riachtananas go ndéanann ETBanna gach iarracht na dualgais seo a chomhlíonadh, go h-áirithe
nuair atá an líon de scoileanna lán-Ghaelach agus an méid scoláire ag freastal orthu ag méadú in aghaidh
na bliana.
Tá an taithí agus an tsaineolas ag ETBanna tacú leis an riachtanais a ghabhann leis na scoileanna lán-
Ghaeilge má thugtar an tacaíocht dóibh trí pearsanra chuí a sholáthair.

ETBs have responsibilities to the all-Irish Schools and Colleges for whom they are patron for.
It is incumbent on ETBs to meet the obligations of properly supporting these schools which have expanded and grown significantly in the last ten years in particular.
ETBs have the expertise and skills to support this growing area, provided the appropriate funding and resourcing of personnel can be provided.

Cúlra / Background
‘Sé Fóram Gaeloideachais Bhoird Oideachais & Oiliúna Éireann (ETBI) an t-údarás oifigiúil ceaptha ag ETBI chun na h-ábhair éagsúla a bhaineann leis na scoileanna lán-Ghaeilge atá faoi phátrúnacht na mBord Oideachais & Oiliúna a phlé agus a chur chun cinn.

Bunaíodh an Fóram Gaeloideachais Bhoird Oideachais agus Oiliúna Éireann in 2010 tar éis moladh a phléadh ag comhdháil Chumann Gairmoideachais in Éirinn ó Choiste Gairmoideachais Chathair Luimnigh in 2009 (12. Rún Ilchodach – Comhdháil 2009) Fóram a bhunú chun tacú le cúraimí na scoileanna lán-Ghaeilge atá faoi stiúir ag Coistí Gairmoideachais.
