I was at another meeting so I am arriving late. I apologise and I thank the witnesses for attending today. When a secondary student with a disability first arrives at third level, would the witnesses say the student is supported to reach his or her full potential or could the student be pigeonholed as not being able to take on certain tasks? That was raised with me by somebody recently. Perhaps they could respond to that. If they have already spoken about it, I apologise, but it is a question I was asked recently.
