We had an engagement about 18 months ago on island schools and some of the particular challenges that they face. We made a number of recommendations to the Minister and, thankfully, some of them were taken on board. The issue of science subjects particularly and the teaching of them through Irish seems to be a challenge. I know that the Minister visited some of the island schools to see a scheme where schools were able to avail of one science teacher. I remember being in Australia years ago and in the bush they had this school and the students tuned in. Will Mr. Ó hÁiniféin tell us a little bit about that?
