Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

The Future of STEM in Irish Education: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Martin Scattergood:

The school I went to was an academic school. I wanted to finish school but I was going to have a hard time doing so. I wanted to work with my hands. My grandad was a sheet metal worker as well. I was interested in that type of work. Through a friend I went down that route. Changing school was hard.
