Demonstration and protest against the closure of schools in front of the 'Dail' 3th July 2008

Save Our School

Students using the Internet

The Irish Government stopped funding the Integrate Ireland Language & Training IILT .

The department of Education closes down the entire network of schools in Ireland.

IILT provides language and integration teaching in centres in Dublin, Galway, Waterford, Sligo, Castlebar, Ballina, Balbriggan, Killenny and Mullingar.

IILT students are among the most vulnerable members of our community. Many have been brought to Ireland for their own safety due to civil war, disaster or persecution.

Teacher Cormac Healy speaking about the school


Both Cormac and Fiona said that they had dentists who weren't allowed to work, and they were refugees but after doing the English language course, they worked and accepted in the profession in Ireland. Also adult refugee students went through the school system got into university which they never dreamt of before doing the English language course.

Also there were so many people in the NGO sector who believe that they were doing very well and it is a bad suggestion for them to be closed down. Frankly speaking refugees need such a school.
