Ms Anne O'Mahony:

In terms of looking at schools' resources, I meant not just the physical infrastructure. In respect of post-primary schools - I defer to my colleagues in ICT policy and the NCTE in terms of the physical infrastructure in schools - we are also looking at schools' resources in terms of their teaching cohorts. There will not be many new teachers replacing the teachers who are there so there must be a continuing emphasis on continuing professional development, CPD, for teachers to assist them. In the context of the roll-out of the new junior cycle, a significant suite of CPD is planned for all second-level teachers.
