Mr. Barry Convey:

Not only that, one could introduce things like Minecraft, micro:bit or IXL maths, which is a programme that can be used to promote maths outside of school time in a competitive way. Lots of digital supports can be offered to students to support their interests and give them the opportunity to explore the subjects themselves outside of what is one their post-primary school timetables. Teachers in primary school need to be trained, upskilled, made aware and supported, through CPD and the provision of resources, in order to expose students to the subjects, and subject content, they will hopefully take up in post-primary school.
