The school patronage process as it is currently constituted dates from 2011. Therefore it is a relatively recent process in the context of the overall history of the State. The Deputy’s question has to be answered in that context. The table at the link summarises the medium of instruction in respect of the overall number of schools and also summarises the medium of instruction for those schools established since 2011 under the school patronage process.
