Rise In Irish Language Exemptions

Irish language exemptions in schools has become more of a talking point in recent times. And it is no surprise, given recent figures show that more than 20,000 pupils who were granted a pardon, were able to go on to study European languages at second level last year. The Irish Times reports that many of the exemptions were granted had a learning disability. However, those who received the exemptions were able to go on to study other languages such as French, German and Spanish. The Department of Education has now issued a directive to prevent so many students dropping it as a subject. Does the rise in Irish language exemptions point to a waning interest in learning our national language? What can be done to address this issue? To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Irish language enthusiast and presenter of Clare FM's Cúl Chaint, Donal Ó Lionsigh, and traditional Irish singer and Irish language facilitator/promoter, MacDara Ó Conaola.

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're diving into a unique double feature: first, we're counting down our Top 5 Vices and Vice Presidents depicted in film and television. This eclectic mix showcases both literal and metaphorical takes on "vice" and "Vice Presidents." Following that, we'll review the spirited Irish-language film Kneecap and the delightful animated series Yakari.Top 5 Vices/Vice Presidents in Film and Television:Frank Underwood in "House of Cards" - Although briefly serving as Vice President, Frank's manipulative rise to power is emblematic of political vice, brilliantly played by Kevin Spacey. His strategic cunning and moral corruption make for a gripping watch.Selina Meyer in "Veep" - Julia Louis-Dreyfus's portrayal of Vice President Selina Meyer blends political satire with the messy realities of vice in Washington, D.C. Her ambition and mishaps paint a hilarious yet poignant picture of a Vice President's life.Dick Cheney in "Vice" (2018) - A deep dive into the controversial life and influence of former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, with Christian Bale's transformative performance bringing out the intensity and complexities of his political and personal vices.John Hoynes in "The West Wing" - A portrayal of ambition and flawed personal decisions, Hoynes is a character who embodies the personal vices that often shadow public figures, offering a nuanced look at the challenges of holding the vice-presidential office.Lyndon B. Johnson in "All the Way" - Before becoming President, LBJ's tenure as Vice President under Kennedy was marked by political maneuvering and ambition, portrayed masterfully by Bryan Cranston.Kneecap is not just a film; it's a cultural phenomenon that became the first Irish-language film to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, where it won the NEXT Audience Award. Directed by Rich Peppiatt, the film follows the formation and rise of the hip-hop trio Kneecap, set against the backdrop of Belfast's complex socio-political landscape. The members of Kneecap play themselves, adding authenticity and raw energy to this stirring narrative. The film blends music, drama, and a poignant look at Northern Ireland's "ceasefire generation," making it a compelling portrayal of youth, music, and rebellion.Yakari is a charming animated series that follows the adventures of a young Native American boy who has the unique ability to communicate with animals. This show not only entertains but also imparts valuable lessons about respect for nature, courage, and the importance of cultural heritage. It's a delightful exploration of adventure and friendship through the eyes of its kind-hearted protagonist, making it perfect for young viewers.Today's episode offers a rich blend of political intrigue, cultural exploration, and animated fun. Join us as we dive into these varied portrayals of vice and leadership in film and television, and explore the impactful narratives of Kneecap and Yakari.

My guest this week, Caoimhín, is a talented musician, an Irish Language advocate, a creative storyteller and a gentle soul, as his name "Caoimhín" suggests. In this soothing episode, Caoimhín takes us from his childhood all the way into his adult life where the common denominator was, and still is, music. He is a gifted traditional musician and plays various instruments including the banjo, flute and fiddle. Caoimhín adores traditional Irish music and he claims he enjoyed it even when it wasn't as cool as it is today! Despite his love and respect for the music in its traditional form, he has been known to add a kick drum or a sub base to ancient Irish songs as seen in his latest single, Bímse féin ag iascaireacht. The complex layer of trance and dance which he adds to the music has allowed him to preserve Irish music while adding to it, which he believes is a beautiful way to modernise and have fun with traditional components of our music. Caoimhín is a Gaeilgeoir but highlights the importance of lifelong learning and even shares some innovative tips and tricks on how to practise and incorporate the language into everyday life. This episode is not to be missed - I thoroughly enjoyed my chat with Caoimhín. Be sure to follow Caoimhín on Instagram at @caoimhinceol to keep up to date with his latest projects.

The 94 CessationThe IRA cessation is 30 years old this Saturday. That Wednesday morning on 31 August 1994 two journalists – Barney Rowan from the BBC and Eamon Mallie from Downtown Radio – arrived at The Patio Restaurant in the Kennedy Centre. It's where 26 West is now. They met a woman republican activist who took from her pocket a small scrap of paper – a comm – on which was written the IRA statement announcing a “complete cessation of all military operations”. While there had been significant speculation over the previous months of the possibility of a ceasefire the enormity of what was being read to them - very slowly because Mallie doesn't have shorthand - was not lost on both.Another Look Back at Féile 24Last week's column reviewed aspects of West Belfasts Féile An Phobail - Féile24. In particular, the Debates and Discussions elements.  It also foolishly committed me to looking back at other aspects of this year's  events. I say foolishly with good reason. The Féile has so many dimensions it is impossible to do justice to them all. Six Hundred and thirty six events in 11 days. Events for families, youth, communities, women.  Including Art, Tours and Walks, Theatre, Classes, Irish Language gigs, Comedy, Food and Drink, Sport, Health and International Affairs.  Literary events, the Environment.  There were also Trad sessions and loads of music. So mindful of the multifarious get togethers that are omitted in this piece I am going to conclude my Féile  retrospective by dealing only with music in the park.Opinions, Interviews Life Stories by James WoodsSeamus Woods is a gifted writer. This is his second book His first one, Hard Times. Good Times And The Celtic Tiger was published in 2011. I enjoyed it immensely. James brings his own unique style and insights to his writing. He is a natural story teller. He is also a long time dedicated writer of letters to the papers.  Particularly on political affairs of the day. That's how he started. In London. In 1987. Those were turbulent days in Anglo Irish history.

Clare Irish Language Enthusiast Says State's "Archaic" Approach Leading To Youth's Disinterest

A Clare Irish language enthusiast blames what he calls the State's "archaic" approach to teaching the language for young people's lack of interest in it. The comments come as a new report has found one third of teenagers would like to see Irish removed as a compulsory subject in second-level education. Marking the 20th anniversary of the the Ombudsman for Children's Office, the OCO has conducted a new survey called 'Tomorrow Starts With Us" in collaboration with Amárach Research. The survey sought the opinions of over 1,000 12 to 18 year-olds on topics such as education, bullying, racism and discrimination, mental health in schools, online safety, accessibility, public transport, the student voice and how Ireland rates as a country for young people. The findings of the survey are predictably broad - with 47% saying they've experienced bullying at some stage and 36% saying they've experienced discrimination - while 71% said Ireland is a good country to reach their full potential in and 62% rated the education system as good or very good. When it came to the finer points of the education system however, 33% said they'd like to see Irish become a choice subject and 15% said they think changes are needed in the approach taken to teaching the language. Ennis-based Irish language enthusiast and presenter of Clare FM's Chúl Chaint Dónal Ó Loinsigh believes the Department of Education urgently needs to overhaul the way in which Irish is taught. Statistics would suggest Clare's chuid Ghaeilge is stronger than most counties' - with the most recent Census indicating the Banner has the second-highest proportion of Irish speakers nationwide at 47%. According to Census figures, there are 54,437 Irish speakers in Clare which is up 3% on 2016. Ardnacrusha Fianna Fáil Councillor Rachel Hartigan - who attended an Irish language secondary school - says an immersion approach should be taken to teaching Irish in the classroom.

In conversation with Michael about his book "32 Words For Field" Manchán Magan reveals Ireland's deep connection with the landscape expressed through the Irish language. The author traces his country's relationship with the natural world and its corresponding belief system that encompasses the 'otherworld'. He lists many similarities between Irish and Sanskrit and even Arabic - suggesting a link between the ancient Islamic word Shamrakh and the Irish Seamróg (shamrock). It's a fascinating discussion of a rich and poetic language that survives in traditional communities on the west coast and is being enthusiastically revived in the cities. Manchán also lists the many words that we use in English that have come from Irish and Scots Gaelic: words like 'bog' 'whisky' 'hooligan' and Tory. We also learn a bit of Hiberno-English along the way.Producer: Maggie Ayre for BBC Audio BristolA longer version of this programme is available on the podcast

Irish is changing fast, with far more of its speakers learning it as a second language, while the native-speaker population declines. Music by Elliot Holmes, Zorro,Hugo Paquette, Medité, and Fleurs Douces. Photo courtesy of Mollie Guidera. Read a transcript of this episode, with more photos here.
