大象传媒 Northern Ireland's
Newsline is challenging P7 pupils with a new test -
to report on how education cuts are affecting their school.
听
As part of a major report into how Northern Ireland's
schools are coping with 拢30m proposed cuts, the daily news programme
will be offering young reporters the chance to tell their story.
听
大象传媒 Newsline's Education Correspondent, Maggie Taggart,
said: "How will the cuts affect your school? Will there be bigger classes?
Are there plans to close down your school library or canteen? Will there
still be lollipop men and women keeping you safe outside your school?
We want to know what you think and for you to help us tell one of the
biggest stories in Northern Ireland today."
听
Young reporters are asked to submit their story idea,
in less than 100 words, to the programme.
听
The 大象传媒 Newsline team will then travel to the school
involved and the selected reporter will get a chance to report their
story on television.
听
Angelina Fusco, Editor of 大象传媒 Newsline, said: "We are
challenging budding journalists to tell their story about their school.
We want to hear from P7s about what they see as the cruellest cut, or
what they think will make accessing education more difficult. We will
travel to the school of the young reporter selected and listen to what
they say."

If you have a story to tell, tell us about in less than
100 words and send by email to bbcnewsline.ni@bbc.co.uk
