I disagree to some extent. There are a number of schools and we are seeing that one in four schools that access supports are DEIS schools. They are not just accessing supports for numeracy and literacy but for supports: to engage with this transition period; in well-being; in communication; in isolation; and in all the challenges we have seen over the two years of lockdown that we have all spoken about today. Therefore, why do secondary schools not want to take on the summer programme?
