GAELIC MEDIUM EDUCATION

FOGHLAM TRO MHEADHAN NA GÀIDHLIG

The Gaelic Medium class in Bonar Bridge School provides education through the medium of Gaelic for children whose parents wish them to be educated through the language. The whole curriculum is delivered through the medium of Gaelic. In the first two years the children are immersed in the language and the reading and writing of English is
phased in from Primary 3 onwards.  Children from the Gaelic Medium class are integrated with the children in the English Medium classes as and when appropriate.

Gaelic Medium Education is open to both children from non-Gaelic speaking homes and to children whose native language is Gaelic. Further information can be obtained from the Gaelic Medium teacher.

Pupils are usually expected to commence at Nursery level so that they are exposed to Gaelic as early as possible.  This is especially important if neither parent is fluent in the language.

Pupils from outwith the normal catchment area of the school will be accepted for Gaelic Medium education and free travel is provided for these children.

Tha Bunsgoil Drochaid a’ Bhanna a’ tabhann foghlam tro mheadhan na Gàidhlig do chloinn ma tha pàrantan ag iarraidh Gàidhlig mar mheadhan teagaisg airson gach cuspair.   Tha an curraicealam air fad air a lìbhrigeadh tro mheadhan na Gàidhlig. Anns a’ chiad dà bhliadhna tha a’ chlann gam bogadh sa chànan agus an dèidh sin tha iad a’ tòiseachadh air sgrìobhadh agus leughadh anns a’ Bheurla cuideachd.  Tha a’ chlann ann am Foghlam tro Mheadhan na Gàidhlig nan làn phàirt dhen sgoil agus bidh iad fhèin agus a’ chlann ann am Foghlam tro Mheadhan na Beurla a’ tighinn còmhla ma/nuair a
bhios sin iomchaidh.

Tha an clas Gàidhlig fosgailte do chloinn ged nach biodh Gàidhlig aca fhèin no san dachaigh cho math ri clann le Gàidhlig mar chiad chànan.  Gheibhear tuilleadh fiosrachaidh bhon tidsear Gàidhlig. 

Ann am Foghlam tro Mheadhan na Gàidhlig gabhar clann a tha a’ fuireach taobh a-muigh na sgìre àbhaisteach às am bi clann a’ tighinn. Tha a’ Chomhairle a’ pàigheadh cosgaisean siubhail.
