 Draft Curriculum Guidelines:
Pilot Project on Modern Languages in the Primary School (1999) The draft curriculum guidelines for Modern Languages in Primary Schools were developed by NCCA. They are laid out in the same way as the Primary School Curriculum (1999). The three strands of the curriculum are communicative competence, language awareness and cultural awareness. The strand units, listening, speaking, reading and writing, are explored and developed under these three strands. The guidelines are available at: http://www.ncca.ie/publications
Teacher  Guidelines:
Modern Languages in Primary Schools Teacher guidelines to accompany the curriculum guidelines were developed by NCCA and published in August 2001. The teacher guidelines develop and expand upon the curriculum as laid out in the Draft Curriculum Guidelines. The teacher guidelines offer suggestions on ways of fulfilling topics and language functions outlined in the curriculum.
The guidelines are available at: http://www.ncca.ie/uploadedfiles/publications/modlang%20guidelines.pdf
