Primary schools across the country are being urged to teach French and other foreign languages. It comes as the French Ambassador to Ireland, Céline Place, said her embassy was helping schools by facilitating teachers who wanted to travel to France and by placing 90 French-language assistants in Irish classrooms across the country.
