The school outside the gate was mentioned, which is important, but a huge amount of people miss that point. Take for example the importance of transition year and students having the experience in the wider world in their engagement with employers and getting experience to see what they want to do with their lives later on and what subjects or job opportunities they want to take up.

Are there any additional things the Department of Education Doing should be doing to enhance that?
