Scope and content
Newspaper clipping from the Irish Independent entitled 'Dublin children's reading lag', reporting on a survey of a sample of 11 year old national school pupils in Dublin, that compared their standard of reading comprehension in English with children of the same age in England. Copy of a letter from Christopher Morris to the Editor of the Irish Independent in response, marked 'sent'. Refers to the findings of Rev. Dr. John Macnamara in 'Bilingualism and Primary Education' from 1966, and believes that no worthwhile policies have helped this situation in the intervening years since his book was published.
