Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth
Foster Care: Discussion
Ms Aine McGuirk:
We need to increase the number of graduates, but in order to do that there needs to be more placements. It is a kind of chicken-and-egg situation. I am not sure how we can get more practice teachers to take more students that are put in the colleges, because if we increase the number of college places and there is nowhere for them to do their practice placements, it will not work.
