The old Harold's Cross Greyhound Track should be developed into a Gaelscoil, according to a local councillor.
Last year it was announced that €23 million would be pumped into the site for a primary and secondary school serving about 1,400 students.
The new schools are expected to open sometime in 2020 - and now there's calls for the secondary one to cater to a "flourishing Irish language community".
Sinn Fein's Chris Andrews says he wants families in the area to have the opportunity to send their kids to an Irish school and that it would provide a "great platform" for kids to learn other languages.
He said: “As a parent who's two daughters went through Gaeloideachas, I would like to see other families have that opportunity.
“The importance and benefits of Irish Medium Education are widely known and accepted.
“In a fast-changing world, holding onto our language and culture is important. Bilingualism also provides great platform to learn other languages.
“The new school in Harold's Cross should be a Gaelscoil and would be a great addition to a flourishing Irish language community with three Bunscoils already in the catchment area."
A campaign has now been launched by Gaelscoil4All who are asking people to vote on the matter .
