ARD STIURTHEOIR’S REPORT TO CONGRESS ON PRIMARY SCHOOLS
The report, Examination of the position of the GAA in Primary Schools with particular reference to Cumann na mBunscol, was submitted in 2014.It was a comprehensive analysis prepared by a work group chaired by George Cartwright, Cavan. The report confirmed that Gaelic games are in a strong position in many of our primary schools, thanks to the great support of teachers, the intense coaching programme undertaken by clubs and county committees, and the work of Cumann na mBunscol in providing a games programme for schools. No other profession has been more supportive of the GAA than teachers, yet the report emphasises that we cannot be complacent. It reminds us that supporting the primary schools and teachers that promote our games is a vital responsibility for administrators at club and county level. Teachers face an ever-increasing workload as part of their professional duties, and it is essential that they receive every possible encouragement in their efforts to develop our games. The report presents a range of practical proposals to enhance the place of Gaelic games in our schools; the implementation of these proposals must be a priority for us in 2015.
