The Gaelic Assessment Scheme

Published: 15 Mar 2017

The Gaelic Assessment Scheme has been in place for a number of years and acts as a benchmark to verify competitors’ fluency levels in competitions and uphold the standard of linguistic skill. The scheme also contributes to the wider role of increasing Gaelic fluency levels among adults as a result.

Appointments for Gaelic Assessment can be made any time throughout the year, excluding September. However, An Comunn Gàidhealach would prefer all entrants needing a Gaelic Assessment card to compete in the Royal National Mòd to sit their assessment before entry to avoid disappointment.

Please note that all competitors needing Gaelic Assessment for the 2018 Royal National Mòd onwards will be required to gain their card before entering competitions.

If you are not sure if you need a Gaelic Assessment, would like to book a slot, or have any other questions regarding Gaelic Assessments, please email seonag@ancomunn.co.uk or phone 01463 709 705
