Why is it a matter for the schools' boards of management? The Department does not let them teach whatever curriculum they want in different subjects. I do not think that is micromanaging schools. I think it is a really good healthy policy for us to have. I ask the officials to go away and think about this as a policy we should implement in our schools. It is not healthy for anyone to have this regardless of income streams. That is pathetic. We need to get rid of them from schools. I have been talking about this for seven years.
