Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Youth Issues: Discussion with Comhairle na nÓg

10:40 am

Mr. Jamie Wiggins:

I agree that there should be an individual other than the teacher. At the last AGM in Donegal, there was a discussion on this matter at which students admitted they ask awkward questions on purpose just to make the teacher feel more uncomfortable or to try to be funny. If people were specially trained to deal with awkward questions, they would be more equipped to respond to students of this mentality.
