I thank all the speakers. As Mr. Ó Caoimh has not had as much time to speak as everyone else, I will start with him. I welcome his comment that the senior cycle must prepare us for more than exams; it must prepare us for life. It is a good line. He said in his statement that students deserved clear feedback, the opportunity to improve and a grading system that valued different kinds of intelligence - analytical, practical and creative. Are we on the right lines in that or what would Mr. Ó Caoimh do differently?
