Dear Sir,
On The City of Edinburgh Council’s draft Gaelic plan, I/we believe:

  • That it is excellent that the Council supports Gaelic and has a plan for Gaelic
  • That the omission of substantial proposals for the key measure of Gaelic-medium education GME) is unacceptable, and the consultation in respect of this issue is not free and fair
  • That GME parents must from now on be fully involved indecisions and plans that affect GME
  • That in the plan the Council must undertake to seek appropriate, flexible funding solutions

That the following must additionally be included in the plan:

  • Proper plans for substantial growth in GME, which address the growth projections in the 2009 feasibility study, and maintain the quality of GME
  • A Gaelic school by the start of 2011/12 and no later
  • Additional nursery and other pre-school provision
  • Expansion of secondary provision to a level that will ensure adult fluency on leaving school
  • Substantial support for Gaelic activities for families, children, young people and adults
  • A community hub for Gaelic close to the school

Other comments I/we wish to make:
