I encourage the Minister of State to engage with the school community. I know we are running to the end of the year, but it was a disappointing move to withdraw that appeal mechanism at short notice just as schools were coming towards the end of the year. There is a lot of uncertainty for schools as they head into the new year. I encourage the Minister of State to continue engaging on that issue.
