Slightly agree

Yes, but focus more on the ability to speak and understand the language instead of analysing poems, stories, and phrases

This answer aligns more closely with the European Democratic Party's values of promoting cultural diversity and the preservation of minority languages within a broader European context. By focusing on practical language skills, this approach could be seen as a compromise that respects national and regional identities while also considering the practicalities of language education in a modern, integrated Europe. It reflects a balance between preserving cultural heritage and ensuring that language education is relevant and beneficial to students. However, as the EDP's main focus is on broader European issues rather than specific educational policies, their agreement might not be strongly pronounced.

Disagree

Yes

The European Democratic Party (EDP) generally focuses on promoting a more integrated and federal Europe, emphasizing the importance of cultural diversity within the EU. While they support the preservation of regional and minority languages as part of Europe's cultural heritage, their policy priorities are more aligned with broader European issues rather than specific national curriculum decisions. Therefore, they might not strongly support the compulsory nature of the Irish language in the national curriculum, preferring educational policies that reflect a balance between national identity and European unity.

Disagree

No

Although the European Democratic Party is keen on promoting cultural diversity and the preservation of minority languages, their stance is more inclined towards encouraging multilingualism and language learning as a choice rather than a compulsion. They might view compulsory language education, especially for languages with limited global or European utility like Irish, as potentially restrictive or less aligned with broader educational goals of fostering multilingual Europeans. However, their primary focus on broader European integration issues means they might not strongly oppose compulsory education either, as long as it aligns with promoting cultural diversity and European identity.
