Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

Integrated Education in Northern Ireland: Discussion

10:15 am

Mr. Paul Caskey:

Let us consider education in the light of the example of policing, which was a very difficult, sensitive issue in Northern Ireland and investigated by the Patten commission. We recognise that how we educate children is a very sensitive issue for many. We are all very proud in most cases of the education we received across the various sectors. It is a question of trying to remove education from the difficult, sensitive space and using external, independent expertise to help to examine all of the various issues involved.
