The Cornish language is currently successfully taught through adult education and a
correspondence course but has a limited position within formal and compulsory educational
settings. The principal studies into the use of Cornish within education are MacKinnon
(2000) and Sayers et al (2018), however, these studies do not consider the most recent
developments within the teaching of Cornish and are written from an outsider’s perspective.
What needs to occur for the language to gain a greater presence in schools, further and higher
education? This paper, written from the perspective of an insider from the language
community, discusses the current position of the language, and issues for the language
community to consider in both the immediate and longer-term future.
