Mr. Seán Gallagher:

Senator Healy Eames asked about changing the school environment and online Internet fora. The former NCTE, now the PDST Technology in Education, has provided a Scoilnet blog service for every school. If a school wants to blog, the service is there. We are examining a range of online tools to be available for teachers. The issues of teacher and student authentication to have parental access is being explored.
