    Hi, This is something I was thinking about recentally, The nearest Gaelscoil to where I live is over 10 miles away and is Very dificult to get a place in.

    I was woundering, How difficult is it to set up a Gaelscoil, Has anyone here ever been part of setting one up?

    I imagine it's the same as setting up any other school. You will need to see if there's a demand in the area for one. Get together with some other interested parents and form a working group. Contact the two(?) patron bodies for gael scoileanna and ask for advice.

    At the very least you and the working group will need to hold a public meeting to gauge public interest and be able to present figures to the DES before getting temporary approval for school.

    I can tell you now that you won't have one for this September but if you get moving now, assuming there is demand, you could have one for next year.
