为什么在爱尔兰学习？

WHY STUDY IN IRELAND?

爱尔兰拥有世界上最好的教育体系之一，连美国前总统奥巴马都说‘’爱尔兰人是世

界上受到最好教育的人群之一‘’。高品质教育这个由来已久的声誉是建立在对卓越

的持续追求。

爱尔兰教育的核心是关注孩子的整体发展。 强调每个孩子都应该全面发展 - 在精

神，情感，身体，创造力和学术上。 2015年，从数学和科学的考试成绩显示，爱

尔兰在76个国家中排名第15，说明爱尔兰的中等教育在国际名列前茅。

在研究影响方面，爱尔兰的大学位列世界研究机构的前1％。 例如，爱尔兰整体科

研水平排名第14位。 爱尔兰的34所高等教育机构，竟开办了5000多个课程！ 这些

课程涵盖了多种多样的课题，资格证书受国际公认，质量有保证。

“Being educated in Ireland, in a friendly and safe environment is a life changing

experience … it’s an investment for life.” Giles O’Neill: Head of Education in Ire-

land.

Ireland has one of the best education systems in the world, renowned internation-

ally for academic quality with US former President Barack Obama calling the Irish

people “among the best educated in the world.” This longstanding reputation for

high quality education is built on a strong commitment to excellence.

Irish education focuses on each child as a whole. There is a strong emphasis on the

whole development of each child - spiritually, emotionally, physically, creatively as

well as academically. In 2015, Ireland had ranked 15th out of 76 countries for per-

formances and test scores in mathematics and science, demonstrating that Irish

secondary education excels at an international standard.

Irish universities are in the top 1% of research institutions in the world in terms of

research impact. For example, Ireland is rated 14th overall for science, and holds

these impressive rankings. With over thirty four higher education institutions,

there is a remarkable 5000+ programmes to choose from! These courses cover

a huge and diverse range of topics that lead to internationally recognized, quality

assured qualifications.

宗教在小学教育里扮演什么角色？

What role does religion play in primary schools?

大多数爱尔兰小学是罗马天主教。 还有其他教派学校，包括新教，犹

太教和穆斯林信仰。 然而，也有多教派和非教派学校。 法律要求所有

学校按照入学政策招收孩子，这可能意味着，虽然学校可以接纳不同宗

教信仰的孩子，但学校可能会优先考虑与学校信仰相关的的孩子。

The majority of Irish primary schools are Roman Catholic. There are

other denominational schools including Protestant, Jewish and Muslim

faith. However, there are also multi- denominational and nondenom-

inational schools. All schools are required by law to enrol children in

accordance with their enrolment policy, this could mean that although

a school can admit children with different or no religious beliefs, the

school can and will give priority to a child of the faith associated with

the school.

中学教育

Secondary

School

中学有公立（这些通常是非收费学校，但大部分会通过

捐赠形式征收小额费用）和私立（各学校费用不一）。

爱尔兰还有一些寄宿学校，但都需付费。中学教育首先

是三年的初中阶段，然后是两年或三年级的高中阶段，

这取决于是否要过渡年。有一点请注意，受教育系统内

的宗教色彩影响，爱尔兰的大多数学校（特别是私立学

校）是单性别学校。

Post primary education includes public secondary

schools (these are usually non fee paying schools but

most require small fees to the school in the form of do-

nations) and private secondary schools (these are fee

paying and the cost will vary from school to school. Ire-

land also has several boarding schools, all of which are

fee paying schools. Public and private secondary schools

are usually run by various religious orders and will

have a religious overtone throughout the school. Post

primary education consists of a three year junior cycle,

followed by a two or three year senior cycle, depending

on whether transition year is taken or not. It should be

noted that the majority of schools in Ireland (especially

fee paying schools) are single gender schools due to the

religious overtones within the education system.

您的孩子可根据年龄界限入读某一年级，但是如果您觉得从低一年前开始更有利于孩子适应爱尔兰的语言和

文化，可向学校提出。 虽然这取决于学校，但通常来说入读低一年级没有问题。

If you’re child is due to start major school years such as primary first class, secondary third year or secondary

fifth but you feel that starting the year before would be a better fit for your child, to help them adjust to Ire-

land and adapt to the language and culture, discuss this with the school. Although this will be dependant on

the school, there would usually be no problem with placing your child in the year below.

STEP 3: HOW TO APPLY

第三步：如何申请

如果您已经从我们推荐的列表中选择了几个学校，或者从自己的搜索中选择了几个学校，并且已经

评估了您孩子将进入什么样的课程，那就可以开始申请了！ 这个过程可能比您想象的需要更长的

时间，由于学校学位满了或回应迟缓。 但无需惊慌，这就是为什么我们建议您选择多所学校（特

别是小学），因为每年有大量的申请人。

Now that you have selected several schools either from our recommended list or from your own

search and you have assessed what class your child will be in, it is time to apply! This process can

take a lot longer than you’d imagine, with schools being full to capacity or slow to respond. Don’t

be alarmed by this, this is why we recommend that you choose more than one school (especially for

primary schools) as there are large numbers of applicants each year.

请按照这些简单的步骤申请学校：

常见问题

Frequently Asked Questions

我的孩子是否需要单独的学生签证？

1 Will my child require a separate student visa?

不，只要您已在GNIB注册，并收到您的4号签证或工作许可证，您的孩子不需要单独的学生

签证，因为他们是您的家属。

No, as long as you have registered with the GNIB and received either your Stamp 4 visa or Work

permit your children do not require a separate study visa as they are now dependants on your

visa.

如果我留在中国，有可能把我的孩子送到爱尔兰的寄宿学校吗？

2 Is it possible to send my children to boarding school in

Ireland while I remain in China?

这没问题！ 但是，由于您的孩子将在没有父母或监护人陪同的情况下在爱尔兰，您需要爱尔

兰教育机构的安排。 他们将提供全面的监护服务，包括机场接送和每月与您孩子联系。 应该

注意的是，监护服务对18岁以下的孩子是强制性的，因此您必须聘请代理人，同时需要支付

一定费用。

您可以向我们的团队说明情况，我们会向您提供与我们密切合作的监护代理的联系方式。

Yes, this is no problem! However, as your children will be in Ireland without a parent or guard-

ian, an education agent in Ireland will need arranged. They will provide a full guardianship

service which includes airport transfers and checking up on your child about twice a month.

It should be noted that the use of agent will be compulsory because of the requirement for a

guardian, there will also be a cost for using an agent.

You can speak to our team about this to get full details and we can give you the contact details

of the agents that we work closely with.

3 私立学校比公立学校好吗？

Are private schools better than public schools?

这是一个难以回答的问题，因为它属于个人意见和偏好，两种学校系统都提供优质的教育质

量。根据您孩子的需要，一些公立学校可能比私立学校更适合，例如大多数公立学校是混合

性别学校，而多数私立学校是单性别学校。

This is a difficult question to answer as it is all about personal opinion and preference, both

school systems offer excellent educational quality, and depending on the needs of your child

some public schools may be more suitable than private schools, for example most public schools

are mixed gender whilst the majority of private schools are single sex schools.

有什么入学要求需要准备？

4 Are there any entry requirements that we should pre-

pare for?

入学要求因学校而异，但每所学校都关心您孩子的英语水平。 如果您希望将您的孩子送到爱

尔兰语学校，那他们需要会说爱尔兰语，否则他们可能不被接受。

在申请过程中，多数学校会要求看您孩子最新的学校报告和成绩单的副本，有些学校可能会

要求孩子前任老师的评语。这些都需要翻译成英文，在申请过程中应尽快准备这些文件。

此外，一些小学对于您的孩子是否受过洗礼可能有严格要求。如果能在当地的教区受洗，可

以帮助您的孩子更快得到学位。

Entry requirements will differ from school to school, however, each school will be curious about

the level of English that your child can speak. If you wish to send your child to an Irish language

secondary school, it will be required that they can already speak Irish, otherwise they may not

be accepted.

During the application process, most schools will ask to see a copy of your child’s most recent

school report and transcript, these will also need to be translated into English. Some schools,

particularly primary schools, may also ask for a small report from your child’s teacher, so it is

best to get these documents prepared as early as possible during the application process.

Furthermore, some primary schools may be strict about whether or not your child has been

baptised. Although it is not necessarily a requirement, it can help with getting your child a place

in your local primary school if they are baptised at the local parish.

我很担心孩子的英语水平，这会是一个很头疼的问题吗？

5 I’m nervous about my child’s English ability, will this

be a problem?

这不是问题！ 2016年国际学生增加了25％，爱尔兰学校系统为此提供了极大的支持，大多

数私立学校会为国际学生提供额外的英语课程。其实不用担心，我们发现，一旦您的孩子搬

到了爱尔兰，沉浸在英语环境中，几个月后他们的英语水平就会突飞猛进！

您也可以通过在头几个月内请英语私教给孩子补习，或把孩子送到学校提供的俱乐部及各种

活动，这不仅有助于他们以自然的方式学习英语，同时还是促进他们结交朋友的好办法。

研究表明，爱尔兰全日制国际学生通常需要3-6个月能掌握英语，大约一年就能熟练交流。

学习新的语言需要有信心和耐心，给他们时间，他们会适应的。

This is not a problem! With a 25% increase in international students in 2016 alone, the Irish

school system provides great support for students that are learning English, with most private

schools providing extra English classes for their international students. But do not worry, we

tend to find that once your child has moved to Ireland and has immersed themselves in the cul-

ture, they pick up English very quickly and within a few months they are naturals!

However, you can also help your child adjust to the language by enrolling them in private Eng-

lish languages for the first few months and by sending your child to clubs and activities provided

by the school, this will not only help them learn English in a natural way but will be a great way

of settling into Irish life and making friends.

Research shows that it usually takes about 3-6 months of being a full time student in Ireland

to become proficient in English and about a year to become fluent. Learning a new language

requires confidence and patience, give them time and don’t push too hard - your child will get

there!

中国教育制度与爱尔兰教育制度的主要区别是什么？

6 What are the main differences between the Chinese ed-

ucation system and the Irish education system?

中国的学校更注重学习成绩，爱尔兰的学校则强调 全面的教育观，培养“全面发展的学生”，

而不仅仅在学业上。 爱尔兰学校提供广泛的科目，比如宗教研究，商业研究，经济学，平面

设计，心理学，戏剧，音乐和各种欧洲语言等学科。 还有大量的课后活动和俱乐部，从帆

船，篮球，露营，国际象棋和辩论。爱尔兰的教育在全球教育水平中排名很高，绝大多数的

爱尔兰人会进入高等教育。

While Chinese schools place more emphasis on academic achievement, particularly in clas-

sic subjects, Irish schools emphasize a holistic view of education - focusing on the devel-

opment of the child as a whole and not just academically. Irish schools offer a wide range

of subjects for the child to learn subjects such as religious studies, business studies, eco-

nomics, graphic design, psychology, drama, music and various European languages. There

are also a large range of after school activities and clubs ranging from sailing, basketball

to camping, chess and debate, with all of the various subjects and activities, Ireland ranks

highly on a global scale with the majority of Irish children progressing onto third level

education.

我非常熟悉英国的教育制度，爱尔兰的与之相似吗？

7 I am very familiar with the UK education system, is the

Irish system similar?

不，英国的教育制度和爱尔兰的制度是不一样的，最好不要这样比较。

例如，英国系统有GCSE和A-level考试，而爱尔兰系统则是初中和高中证书。 此外，爱尔兰

没有像英国的文法学校（重点中学），如果在爱尔兰学校的名称中提到‘文法’，那也是不一样

的。 在爱尔兰，如果一所学校被称为文法学校，更有可能是因为这是一个新教学校。

然而，虽然教育制度不同，英国承认爱尔兰的高标准教育，许多爱尔兰学校与英国大学紧密

合作。

No, the UK education system and Irish system are not the same and it would be best to try not

to compare them.

For example, the UK system has GCSEs and A Levels for exams while the Irish system has Jun-

ior and Senior Certificate. Furthermore, Ireland does not have grammar schools in the same

way that the UK does, if grammar school is mentioned in the school’s name in Ireland, it will

not be the same. In Ireland, if a school is called a grammar school it is more likely to be because

it is a protestant school.

However, although the education systems are different, the UK recognises the high standard of

education in Ireland, with many Irish schools working closely with English universities.
