Ms ?ine Cusack:

We are conscious of the challenges faced by families and children on islands who do not have post-primary provision. There are particular challenges Mr. Loftus mentioned. It is about making sure children can access appropriate education with full curricular access. The accommodation issue is nearly secondary. It is about providing the critical mass, in numbers of children, as Mr. Loftus mentioned, with viable education that is rounded and meets all their needs. It is a challenge and we acknowledge it.
