Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Leaving Certificate Reform: Discussion

Ms Emer Neville:

Post-primary DEIS schools have noted that they are receiving less support in terms of career guidance and access to grinds and additional educational supports. It is vital that grinds and those additional services be made free so that students, regardless of their incomes and post codes, have access to them. It is not fair that some students are not on the same higher level as students who can afford those supports. It is a major flaw in our system.
