The schools are brilliant, as is all of the work that is happening. There is a lot of good news. I was a lecturer so I saw young students with disabilities who came into third level education, went on from that and they are now working and they are still friends of mine. There is great potential in these people. It is not necessarily about disabilities but they have different abilities and that is the way we have to approach it. There are good things happening but we need to get it going at the start.
