Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
North-South Student Mobility: Discussion
Mr. Shari Irfan:
I believe most students in second level education usually make that decision around transition year. That is when you are out there working and trying to explore what works for you and what does not. You are not focused necessarily on the academics but are focused on your work and what you want to do after school. The information should be available to the students at that point. They should know that this is an option for them. As they develop in fifth and sixth year, they will come to a concrete conclusion as to what they want to do.
