Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

North-South Enrolment in Tertiary Education: Discussion

Mr. Frank Jones:

No, I do not think there has been any significant improvement. If anything, there has been a deterioration in recent years, further compounded by the facts relayed in the report. The late leaving certificate which was mentioned in the earlier session as well, is doing nothing to help. That is something very much within the control here to address. I do not think that is an issue attached to massive funding. I do not think there is the focus on the North-South enrolment and integration that there should be.
