Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
Effects of Covid-19 on Further Education and Training: Discussion
Ms Carol Hanney:
Literacy is an area that has probably suffered a little during the lockdown because people with literary difficulties are harder to reach. They are also the people who may not have digital skills. Digital literacy is also a serious problem and one that we are addressing. Literacy is something that we are addressing all of the time. We are always getting better at it but it is more suited to person-to-person delivery, particularly at the initial stages.
