Covid-19 (Education and Skills): Statements

Joe McHugh (FG), Donegal

On the pupil-teacher ratio, PTR, for small schools, I had an opportunity last budget to reduce the PTR for one, two, three and four-teacher schools. Fine Gael also committed to reducing the PTR in future budgets.
Maidir le Gaelscoil na Laochra i mBiorra, chas mé leis an gceannaireacht uilig an bhliain atá imithe thart agus tá sé soiléir sa scoil agus sa cheantar seo go mbeidh an scoil seo iontach tábhachtach. Dá mbeadh aon sonraí nó rud ar bith eile de dhíth maidir le dul chun cinn na scoile sin beidh mé sásta teagmháil a dhéanamh leis an Teachta.
