Record numbers of schools have had to seek emergency financial assistance from the Department of Education this year, as they struggle to meet dramatically increased running costs with inadequate funding. That is according to the Catholic Primary School Management Association (CPSMA). The management body says an urgent increase in financial support for primary schools from the State is needed so that they can meet basic running costs. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by the Principal of St Connaire's Primary School in Shannon, Peter Walsh and Assistant Principal of CBS Primary School in Ennis,Colm Davoren.

A ballot of school secretaries for indefinite strike action in a dispute over pensions is underway. The ballot has been commenced by the Fórsa trade union, the union representing more than 2,300 school secretaries in primary and secondary schools.

Residents of Toekomsrus in the West Rand are fearing for their lives as gangs in the area continue to wreak havoc. Residents say the turf war between the Umbrellas and Varados has led to some in the community being collateral damage. They say Toekomsrus has become the new Westbury as police struggle to deal with the crime. Gang violence has been highlighted on the international stage following comments made by South African billionaire Johann Rupert. This was during a meeting at the Oval Office in Washington in the US last week on Wednesday. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to Toekomsrus community activist, Shida Abrahams and gang expert, the Former Western Cape Police Commissioner, Dr Lennit Max

L'émission 28 minutes du 23/05/2025 Ce vendredi, Renaud Dély décrypte l'actualité en compagnie de nos clubistes : l'historien Pascal Blanchard, Sylvie Brunel, géographe et écrivaine, Nathan Devers, écrivain et philosophe et la dessinatrice de presse Coco.Proche-Orient : l'Europe prise entre deux feux ?Un match diplomatique intense s'est joué cette semaine. Face à l'opération israélienne "Chariots de Gédéon", couplée au blocus humanitaire et à la volonté d'occuper la bande de Gaza, l'Union européenne a annoncé mardi 20 mai réexaminer l'accord d'association qui la lie à Israël. La brouille diplomatique s'est rapidement amplifiée : le lendemain, des soldats israéliens ont tiré en direction de diplomates européens en déplacement dans le camp de réfugiés de Jénine, en Cisjordanie. Des tirs qui n'ont fait aucun blessé, mais qui ont provoqué une condamnation unanime de la part des chancelleries européennes. Jeudi 22 mai, deux employés de l'ambassade israélienne ont été assassinés par balle à Washington. Les condamnations de cet acte antisémite ont été nombreuses. Israël maintient toutefois son point du vue sur l'Europe et parle "d'incitation à la haine", en référence à leur durcissement diplomatique face à l'État hébreu. Des propos jugés "outranciers" par Christophe Lemoine, porte-parole du ministère des Affaires étrangères, qui témoignent de la difficulté du dialogue entre Israël et les Européens. Islamisme en France : danger réel ou fantasme ?Mardi 20 mai, "Le Figaro" a révélé un rapport très attendu sur l'influence des Frères musulmans en France. Depuis plusieurs mois déjà, le ministre de l'Intérieur Bruno Retailleau dévoilait des informations sur ce rapport qu'il juge "accablant", et s'est emparé du sujet en publiant un "Manifeste contre l'islamisme" à la fin du mois d'avril. Le rapport de 78 pages fait état de 139 lieux de culte liés à des milieux fréristes, sur les 2 600 que compte la France. Il provoque des dissensions tous azimuts, y compris sur sa méthodologie, qui divise les scientifiques, ainsi que sur sa réception et son instrumentalisation. Il a engendré de vives réactions politiques : Gabriel Attal a, par exemple, annoncé vouloir interdire le voile dans l'espace public pour les mineures de moins de 15 ans. L'islamisme en France est-il un danger ou un fantasme ? Nous recevons Plumes, un musicien atypique. Accompagné de sa très reconnaissable guitare rose, Plumes chante depuis 3 ans pour un public bien particulier : les animaux. Et ces derniers sont loin d'être insensibles aux mélodies du musicien. Le milliardaire Pierre-Édouard Stérin a esquivé pour la troisième fois sa convocation par la commission d'enquête parlementaire sur l'organisation des élections en France. Sa présence y était réclamée en raison de son engagement au profit de l'extrême droite, notamment avec le réseau "Périclès" (acronyme de Patriotes Enracinés Résistants Identitaires Chrétiens Libéraux Européens Souverainistes). Son absence a provoqué l'ire de Yaël Braun-Pivet, présidente de l'Assemblée nationale, qui l'a interpellé sur le réseau social X : "Respectez vos obligations, respectez l'Assemblée nationale et son travail de contrôle, respectez les Français".  C'est le duel de la semaine de Frédéric Says. Donald Trump ne cache pas son amour pour l'or. Il y avait eu la "gold card", présentée en avril. Place désormais au "golden dome", pour protéger les États-Unis. Un choix lexical qui reflète le goût prononcé du président américain pour ce précieux métal. C'est le Point Com de Paola Puerari. Le 21 avril, l'école pour enfants défavorisés The Primary School a annoncé qu'elle fermerait ses portes en 2026. L'établissement, situé a East Palo Alto en Californie, était l'œuvre philanthropique de Mark Zuckerberg, le richissime patron de Meta, et de sa femme Priscilla Chan. Un revirement qui intervient quelques mois après que Mark Zuckerberg s'est rangé derrière Donald Trump, et laisse 400 familles sur le carreau. C'est l'histoire de la semaine de Claude Askolovitch. Enfin, ne manquez pas la Une internationale sur l'annonce du cancer de Joe Biden ; les photos de la semaine soigneusement sélectionnées par nos invités, ainsi que la Dérive des continents de Benoît Forgeard !28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05.

Thanganani Primary School Opens Amid Teacher Shortage and Infrastructure Delays by Radio Islam

The Oxford School of Thought (OST) is the primary education think tank – the first of its kindin the UK. They regard learning as a continuum, and we recognise the powerful and enduringinfluence of primary education across a lifetime of learning.OST proposes a distinct model of school inspection for primary schools, highlighting theneed for a framework that reflects the unique nature of primary education.The current inspection model, which primarily caters to secondary schools, fails to addressthe developmental and educational needs of primary school children. This has led to a lackof focus on the holistic, child-centered approaches necessary for young learners.The document emphasises that primary education fosters curiosity, relationships, and abroad, engaging curriculum, factors critical to the early stages of lifelong learning.To improve outcomes for students and to support teachers, the proposed inspection modelshould focus on these aspects, providing a more supportive, collaborative, anddevelopmental approach to school evaluation.The paper outlines some key components for a primary-specific inspection framework, suchas the importance of cross-curricular links, teacher-pupil relationships, inclusivity, and theintegration of the school within its community and primary teaching experience forinspectors.By calling for a developmental and collaborative inspection model the paper aims to shiftaway from punitive measures and towards a system that encourages continuousimprovement, addresses the well-being of both students and staff, and contributes to thebroader goal of fostering lifelong learning.This new approach is seen as essential for enhancing the education system, teacherretention, and children's mental health, and is framed as a necessary step in responding torecent government reviews on curriculum, assessment, and inclusion.Full details at https://www.oxfordschoolofthought.org/ost-report-primary-inspectionDiscover more about Education on Fire

Due to various Three In A Bar style holdups we never managed to release that episode so have a brand shiny new chat with Ian for you!We talk to Ian about his extensive recorder selection, how the sound of a great recorder ensemble is definitely not what you remember from Primary School days but also a harrowing experience involving  hundreds of renditions of the Mexican Hat dance - something surely no one should ever have to experience? Ian demonstrates his quite astounding knowledge of bird song with a starting resemblance to a British countryside stalwart. We chat about the use of recorders in various film and TV scores and its renewed popularity. Anyone preparing for auditions listen up! Ian gives some excellent advice on preparations for scholarship or Music college auditions.

Australia has a maths problem: one in three Australian school students fail to achieve proficiency in maths. When maths is taught well, children and the nation benefit. But taught poorly, students are robbed of a core life skill. Adults with weaker maths skills have worse job prospects and are more likely to struggle with routine tasks such as managing budgets and understanding health guidance. Join Amy Hayward, Education Deputy Program Director, in conversation with co-authors Nick Parkinson and Dan Petrie, about how to boost students' maths proficiency in primary schools.
