As the Deputy is aware, I announced important changes to the CAO webpage last week to enhance the visibility of further education and apprenticeship options.

I offered through my social media channels to visit schools to talk to 5^thor 6^thyear students about their options. We received over 580 responses and are now working on a schedule of visits. I am really pleased to say the school referenced is on our list and we hope to visit Cork as soon as is possible and in line with public health advice.
