Public benefits

To advance the education (through the medium of Irish) of all the pupils in the school. Through the provision of up to date resources, including on-line subscriptions, the pupils will have access to a high standard of teaching and opportunities for learning. Develop effective relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the

school, therefore providing a strong community based approach. It is also intended that Cairde na Gaelscoile will improve relationships between home and school which will mean greater parent involvement in school life and in the children’s education. Parents will be more involved in their child's education and will be more familiar with out school ethos and culture. This parental involvement will filter through to the children and they will see the importance that their own parents are placing on education. The benefit which flows includes increased educational progress and attainment of pupils in the school and links built with the local community. The benefit which flows includes funding for additional resources for the school and links built with the local community. In addition parents will become more involved in their child's education which will ensure the children are achieving. There is no harm arising from any purpose. The pupils of our school are the main beneficiaries of our charity. However parents and families will also benefit in that they will see and take part in the various activities organised by Cairde na Gaelcoile. Parents will also feel pride in their children's achievements. All benefits are incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to all beneficiaries
