Should have took them off them last season.
The timing of the penalties in relation to the offenses is a weird one for me, but I'm assuming it's all in the league rules.

Be better spending the money on a fill of heating oil.
Trying to get the ground dry for rotavating and sowing. It'll be September before its dry at this rate.
Yet rainfall in Donegal and Sligo is below average so far this year.
Quote from: Tony Baloney on March 18, 2024, 10:53:37 PMOne or two bad inspection reports can cause a drop in enrollments which can be catastrophic for a small school looking to get every child they can. I've seen families leave a school and once it starts it can become a torrent.Quote from: marty34 on March 18, 2024, 10:51:22 PMWhat about the inspections?Not here but they are massive news amongst the chattering classes in England.
Is it not just standard, good orvery good in the report. I think it's quite basic.
The thing is do parents: 1. Read the reports and 2. will it have any impact on their decision where to send their son/daughter.
I'd say no to both.
Quote from: Tony Baloney on March 18, 2024, 08:46:03 PMNo problem with inspections. Would welcome regular inspections for all schools.Quote from: JimStynes on March 18, 2024, 05:23:25 PMWhat's the fear teachers have of being inspected? My wife is yapping about it and she hasn't been inspected in 14 years! Maybe if inspections were more frequent e.g. annually, there would be less fuss about it.Quote from: Duine Inteacht Eile on March 18, 2024, 04:44:30 PMTo a point but this deal (~13% and no workload agreement) is going to fly over the finishing line without a bother.
I don't think, say, 4% and an agreed workload solution would.
Money talks.
The younger teachers are blinded by the money and haven't ever went through the unrealistic inspection show/game/charade or whatever you'd like to call it.

Quote from: LeoMc on March 07, 2024, 10:58:10 PMThere will be a few Irish there. Make sure the camps are running and that the instructors have English. Email the camp if unsure.Quote from: manfromdelmonte on February 12, 2024, 01:42:16 PMCurrently looking at a couple of the camps in that area. Do they attract many Irish?Quote from: WeeDonns on February 12, 2024, 11:52:03 AMI've tried searching this thread for posts on Euro Camp Holidays as I'm sure I've seen them mentioned before, but its returning nothing(?)fly into Bordeaux.
Currently exploring the idea of our first trip abroad with the kids – 6, 4 & 3
We liked the idea of the ferry to Brittany, but its around 17 hours & actually quite expensive so looking at flying
Has anyone any airport/camp combinations to recommend? Thinking short transfer
I've been checking flights to Nates/Paris/Amsterdam – might have to go the 12th week which isn't always ideal
I'm seeing flights from ~£800-1300 (before luggage) & the camp starts at less than £800 which isn't bad at all compared to a package holiday
great 5 star campsite in Biscarrosse called La Rive. a week there will be about 500 euro outside of july and august
I would be hoping the kids can meet ones and get out from under my feet for the week.
