Schools ‘don’t have facilities’ to offer PE for Leaving Cert

Irish Independent Wednesday 13th December 2017

Many schools don’t have the gym facilities or equipment to offer the new Leaving Certificate subject in physical education (PE), principals have warned.

The Government will have to provide funding to ensure equitable access to the subject for all pupils, according to National Association of Principals and Deputy Principals (NAPD) director Clive Byrne.
