While the suggestion of engaging with the NCCA is positive, I note the theme of a recent conference of the History Teachers Association of Ireland was, Will School History survive the "Decade of Commemoration"? It would be ironic if, in 2022, there were classes of young people who did not know what were those decades. I also wish to make a plea for geography, even though I was not involved in it, as they are two core subjects.
