Philip Robinson on the Ballyboley Classes
Liam Logan heads to the old Ballyboley Primary School, now part of the North Down and Ards Institute, to visit the Ulster-Scots class being run by Dr Philip Robinson.
Tutor, Philip says that while Ballyboley is in a traditional Ulster-Scots heartland, the students are enjoying learning to read and write as well as speak the language.
This is the third course Philip has run in the school, and the classes are now accredited by the Open College Network. (Broadcast: 6 Mar 2005)
