All staff in the Education Authority are to be offered training in the Irish language and Ulster Scots
All staff in the Education Authority are to be offered training in the Irish language and Ulster Scots.It is one of the measures in new interim policies for both languages being consulted on by the authority.
However, the authority has introduced interim policies to set out what services and information Irish and Ulster Scots speakers can expect from it.In face-to-face meetings and phone callsThe authority said it normally responded to correspondence in English within 10 working days, but "taking into account the need to have the information translated" responses to correspondence in Irish and Ulster Scots would take 15 working days.
The new interim language policies cover services provided by the authority but not what is taught about Irish or Ulster Scots in schools.
