Since many of the most vulnerable emigrants are between the ages of 15 and 24 years the task force suggests that the starting point for information should be a pre-emigration service in the schools. I agree totally. I cannot imagine what it must be like for a 15 year old emigrant and I hope they are few and far between. The task force recommends that a module of education for independent living in a multi-cultural world be included in the new social, personal and health education programme. When children see this appearing on the curriculum I hope they do not look on it in a pessimistic way and think we are educating them for emigration. I hope that will never be the case again.
