Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Leaving Certificate Reform: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Ryan Sharpe:

I will add one small point. It was mentioned that people would do what they want to do and that they would not be messing. I will talk about that point a bit more. If there was a way people could be in the classes that they wanted to be in, then the rate of bullying, messing in classes and people not listening would go down significantly. If people want to be in classes, and make a choice to be there, then they are going to be there. Those students are going to want to learn and they are going to learn, and then go off and be successful because they are doing what they want to do. That could also solve many bullying problems.
