What profit does the college make? What is the bottom line? The college is not a charitable organisation but a business, and I would like some information on the financial aspects, if possible. My final question relates to the education system in Finland. This committee examined the system in that country and has prepared a report for the Houses of the Oireachtas. In that country, they place great emphasis on pedagogy. I know it is part of the curriculum here, as it stands, but how much emphasis would the college place on that and how would it compare with the other teacher training colleges in that regard?
