If there is a need in an area, I do not think a board of management making a decision that we are not doing a summer programme or that it is not available should be superseded by the need of the kids. I will mention one of the replies we got to our survey. We emailed all 128-odd schools. One school actually came back and said it was not going to run a summer programme because it is leasing out the school to a private provider to run summer classes.
