Class Size possible increase protest |
(94) Friday, September 27, 2013 |
There is a possible massive threat to primary education in the upcoming budget, namely increasing class size. Ireland has the 2nd largest class sizes in the EU. Dublin Fingal has the highest class sizes in the country. To increase this would be fundamentally wrong. Children only get one chance at education. If you want to protect primary education from further possible ,cuts join the protest. All the partners in primary education are organising and supporting a protest against increasing class size and any cuts to education in Budget 2014. Outside the Department of Education and Skills, Marlborough Street, Dublin 1 Wednesday, 2nd October at 4.30pm. |
