Oiriúnach do ghlantosaitheoirí. |
|
Bonnleibhéal 2 (A2) |
Feiliúnach do dhaoine a rinne staidéar ar an nGaeilge ar scoil, ag an ngnáthleibhéal b'fhéidir, a bhraitheann nár thug siad na bunscileanna teanga leo agus ar mhaith dul ar ais agus an teanga a athfhoghlaim. Is minic gur daoine iad:
(i) a rinne Gnáthleibhéal Gaeilge san Ardteistiméireacht nó
(ii) a shaothraigh H5 nó faoina bhun i scrúdú Ardeibhéal na hArdteiste nó
(iii) a bhain amach pas maith i scrúdú Theastas Eorpach na Gaeilge Bonnleibhéal 1 (A1).

Meánleibhéal 1 (B1)
|
Feiliúnach do dhaoine a rinne staidéar ar an nGaeilge go dtí an t-ardleibhéal, a bhfuil tuiscint réasúnta maith acu ar an nGaeilge ach nach bhfuil muinín acu as a gcuid scileanna labhartha agus scríofa. Is minic gur daoine iad:
(i) a rinne Ardleibhéal Gaeilge san Ardteistiméireacht agus a bhain amach grád H3 nó H4 nó
(ii) a bhain pas maith amach i scrúdú Theastas Eorpach na Gaeilge Bonnleibhéal 2(A2). |
| Meánleibhéal 2 (B2) |
Feiliúnach do dhaoine a bhfuil tuiscint mhaith acu ar an teanga agus atá ag iarraidh barr feabhais a chur ar a gcuid scileanna labhartha agus scríofa i gcomhthéacsanna pearsanta agus gairmiúla. Is minic gur daoine iad:
(i) a rinne Ardleibhéal Gaeilge san Ardteistiméireacht agus a bhain amach grád H1 nó H2 nó
(ii) a bhain amach pas maith i scrúdú Theastas Eorpach na Gaeilge Meánleibhéal 1(B1) nó
(iii) a raibh Gaeilge mar ábhar acu sa chéad bhliain i gclár BA agus pas maith acu ann nó
(iv) a mbíonn teagmháil rialta agus reatha acu leis an teanga mar chuid dá gcuid oibre nó a saol sóisialta.
Caithfidh tú ar a laghad ceann de na critéir thuas a shásamh agus iarrfar ort fianaise maidir leis seo a chur ar fáil. Cé gurb é seo an leibhéal a shásaíonn riachtanais iontrála na Roinne Oideachais agus Scileanna do dhaoine atá ag iarraidh cur isteach ar chláir acadúla sa bhunoideachas, mura bhfuil staidéar déanta agat ar an nGaeilge le fada, ní mholtar do dhaoine tosú ag leibhéal B2. |
