Ms Evelyn O'Connor:

On the draft specifications for the T1 and T2 in leaving certificate Gaeilge, I am sure it is frustrating for the same thing being said again, but we had a great deal of data to get through, such as written submissions, online surveys, one-to-one interviews with teachers, focus groups and bilateral meetings. They were giving feedback on the draft specifications of T1 and T2, on their concerns about enactment and the model of provision and those systemic questions. I know that the question of T1 and T2 looms large for many people but there is a richness of perspectives on it, much to do with the draft specifications as well as those questions. We will be bringing them to the council in the coming months for its consideration. It is not a new answer, but just to reiterate, that work is advanced at the moment.
