Some of the benefits of Gaelic Medium Education include:
• Recent Edinburgh University research shows that children educated through Gaelic are on par with or outperform children educated in one language
• Children in Gaelic medium education (GME) can be fluent in two languages with advantages learning other ones
• Bilinguals can access different literatures and more ways of thinking and acting
• Gaelic bilinguals have a better understanding of their place in wider Scottish culture identity
• Being bilingual offers many career opportunities
• Children exposed to different languages at an early age tend to be more focussed than monolinguals at 'multitasking'
• They are better readers, and generally find it easier to learn other languages.
