The Future of STEM in Irish Education: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Barry Convey:
If one looks at the Cartesian co-ordinates, it spans multiple subjects at both primary and post-primary level. It covers geography, science, maths and graphics. That is an area that could be introduced in primary school in a simple and fun way. It would save teachers in post-primary schools a lot of time teaching that topic.
