We can all agree with Mr. Sharpe and also with Deputy Alan Farrell's point about learning Irish for 13 years without ever using it. If we learning things that were useful to us in life, it would be more beneficial. It is very stressful to have to learn everything on the curriculum, especially when we know we will not use it. At my first ever statistics class in college, my lecturer told us to forget everything we had learned about maths in the leaving certificate because it was useless and would not help in statistics at all. If we learned things that actually benefited us in life, it would be much less stressful.
