Ms Andrea Feeney:

That was looked at in the context of senior cycle reform and the basis on which we provide education at senior cycle. Consideration was given to narrowing the range of subjects in order that there would be more depth in their treatment. The consensus reached in the review process, which my colleagues in the NCCA will come in on, was that, on balance, the breadth and type of learning experience students have is actually better. It is better to have that broad base rather than narrowing it. Do my colleagues want to come in on that?
