I am very heartened by today's contribution from our guests. It is very difficult to change a mindset. We all remember how we were taught languages and we all know what way we now want to go. I am genuinely very impressed by the amount of work happening in both in the NCCA and the Department and the move towards a modern approach to languages. There is clearly a big move afoot. I can see in my own children that how they are being taught and how they do their homework is very different. I commend the witnesses for that.
