Consultation Response: Schools (Residential Outdoor Education) (Scotland) Bill
Bòrd na gàidhlig have submitted a response to the Scottish Government’s consultation on the Schools (Residential Outdoor Education) (Scotland) Bill. Amongst the points raised, we said:
“In Gaelic medium Education (GME), practical experiences to use the language are essential. Access to a range of outdoor experiences can enable children and young people to use their Gaelic language skills in social settings by taking the language out of the classroom. The sooner these opportunities are provided the better to help develop confidence and language skills.”
