Actually this is incorrect and the vast majority of national primary schools are indeed private in that they are privately owned (usually by religious institutions) even if they are largely state funded. See :Gaules said:Private schools do not seem to be very popular in Ireland
Perhaps you mean some other form of private (fee paying?) school or something?Ownership of primary schools
Information
The vast majority of primary schools in Ireland are privately owned and supported by the different churches. The state pays the bulk of the building and running costs and a local contribution is made towards the running costs.
National schools are privately owned - in general by the relevant church authorities. In the case of Catholic schools, the owners are usually the diocesan trustees; the same is true for Church of Ireland schools. Other denominational schools usually have a board of trustees nominated by the church authorities. Multi-denominational schools are usually owned by a limited company or board of trustees.
Gaelscoileanna may be denominational and come under the same patronage as Catholic schools but some have their own limited company.
Unfortunately not but I better learn before 2010!Gaules said:Do you have any thoughts to help with this dilema, i.e. best education (school and formation) for your kids?
When was snobbery outlawed in Ireland?DrMoriarty said:The same principle may partly explain the current boom in popularity of the gaelscoileanna sector (all-Irish schools, Gaule — mais je suppose que ce n'est pas une option?). I hasten to add that there are plenty more parents who choose gaelscoileanna for perfectly legitimate reasons having to do with genuine pride in/love of the Teanga!
That's what it was in my day and it didn't do us any harm...Small class sizes are certainly a Good Thing — and yes, 31 is verging on the ridiculous!
