in 1987, the anthem was recommended, but not required, to be taught as part of the civics syllabus in national schools. fianna fáil's manifesto in the 2007 general election promised to "[i]nclude the national anthem in the primary school curriculum". the primary school social personal and health education curriculum includes being "aware" of the anthem in third/fourth class, and "respecting" it in fifth/sixth class. richard bruton, the minister for education stated that it was "not departmental policy to impose regulations on schools regarding national expression", but that it had supported several initiatives which included the national anthem. to mark the 2016 centenary of the easter rising, members of the defence forces visited each national school and presented it with a national flag and copies of the national anthem and the 1916 proclamation. a 2017 opinion poll found 82% supported teaching the anthem in school; 40% claimed to know all the words and 40% "some" of them. the 2018 seanad report said the anthem was "indeed currently on the curriculum at primary school level. however, once it has been taught at primary school level there are opportunities for students to use the national anthem within the school environment". it said suggestions to sing the anthem at school every day "may not be possible", but school children could be encouraged to sing it on the eve of saint patrick's day.
