Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Post-Primary Education: Discussion (9 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: I am disappointed none of them have said they will go into politics.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Post-Primary Education: Discussion (9 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: I agree 100%. It is an issue this committee has discussed over a long time and it keeps coming back to the social media platforms and the bullying that can happen on them. It amazes me that schools do not have a strict policy on the use of mobile phones in their own premises. If I had my way, no student would have a phone in school. Every school principal talks about the great policy they...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Post-Primary Education: Discussion (9 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: On behalf of all the committee members, I want to say to our witnesses that they are impressive young people. They are a credit to their parents, teachers and schools. They should all be very proud. Primary school teaching is a great career to go into. My daughters want to do the same. Whether that is because of the holidays or not, I do not know. I hope none of the witnesses were on...

Written Answers — Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Animal Passports (9 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: 570. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if a dog is treated for tapeworm 24 hours prior to departing Ireland for the UK, and returns to Ireland from the UK within 120 hours of that treatment, is this treatment sufficient in terms of meeting the requirement to have tapeworm treatment prior to returning to Ireland; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29269/24]

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: I thank the Teaching Council. Any time I have made a query on behalf of a teacher coming back from abroad, it has always been helpful. I might not always get the answer I want, but normally the Teaching Council is able to speed up the process if at all possible. When a qualified teacher goes to the Middle East or Australia, they normally go for two to five years. Many go for up to ten...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: Has the Teaching Council any proposals for how the teaching profession could be more representative of Irish society? Irish society has totally changed in the past 20 years with respect to race, ethnicity, gender, including LGBTQ members, socioeconomic status, Traveller background and so on. Has much thought been put into how social changes in Ireland have happened over the last ten years?...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: In all that research and work that is going to be done, will the Teaching Council be consulting the stakeholders like the INTO, the ASTI, the TUI and the representatives of the teacher unions?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: Concerning the way schools have divested in recent times and lay people are now chairs and boards of management are being encouraged in this regard, I am not sure what way to frame this question but hopefully the witnesses will understand the gist of where I am coming from when I say there would have been an issue in the past when teachers would have said they were members of the LBGTQ...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: I encourage the Teaching Council to have a stand at the conferences of the teacher unions because the feedback received from teachers can differ a great deal from that heard from their representatives. When teachers are at their conferences, they feel more open. They are there themselves and able to express themselves. It is just an idea.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)

Paul Kehoe: From my background in politics for the last 22 years, I have always found it to be far better to deal with the organ grinders on occasions such as these because it is possible to learn an awful lot more. The teachers give much better feedback. I have nothing against the union heads, or anything like that, if they happen to be watching, but I do believe that the teachers, or the members of...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: Key Issues for the Teaching Council: Discussion (3 Jul 2024)
