Regarding sexual-based violence in secondary schools, my personal belief is that it probably is more prevalent there than it is in third level education. It is so difficult to speak about it. At our age, it is not a big topic because people do not want to discuss things like that with their parents or in school. There is so much stress about that. People do not always feel they can go and speak to someone about it. There is not always somebody there whom they can trust. Sometimes, people do not feel they can talk to the Garda. It is horrible at that age.
