‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Physical Education Facilities. Gymnasia in new post-primary schools
Summary
Brennan challenged the decision to build schools without gymnasia, arguing physical education was important and the savings false economy. The Minister confirmed laboratories remained in the plans but gymnasia were excluded.
Is it the Minister's decision, in the interest of saving money, to build new post primary schools without laboratories and without an assembly hall and gymnasium? Is this not a ridiculous situation at a time when there is so much need for provision for our young people to take part in physical education?
