The final report from an ind’t review of JC conducted by UL professor Oliver McGarr is due shortly. Initial findings here: https://t.co/Xax6EEABw1 Also the Inspectorate published a review of JC based on years of junior cycle inspection reports: https://t.co/YzkVZZEOTZ

Dept of Ed “should at least first review whether junior cycle reforms were a success - they don’t want to review this because they know what the review would tell them, teachers and parents all agree the new system is not as robust as the old one was.” 👏🏻 Aaron Wolfe. #edchatie

This is thought provoking.Has it come to this for the teaching profession? Very depressing stuff if it has.Trying to think if 17 y/o me would choose teaching in Ire today & it just doesn’t seem likely.The “pillar of society” idea has passed for sure.Reasons? Solutions? #edchatie
Never thought I'd see the day when people didn't want to be a teacher. It used to be a "pillar of society" job, a job that meant you were financially secure. Neither is true now. It is now a job that's simply not worth the effort.

Leo Varadkar has 6 advisors with total salaries of €700,000 a year yet not one could tell him it's pitch dark at 5pm.

And we expect legislators to protect renters? They are up to their necks in property. Also: Robert Troy has done damage to FF. he may as well be standing in the Galway tent pissing out on Micheal Martin & FF. #RobertTroy #oneruleforthem @RobertTroyTD @fiannafailparty
Robert Troy resigns, saying he won't apologise for being a landlord and launches an attack on the media coverage of his property interests.

There’s definitely something about government ministers growing in arrogance the longer they’re in office. @simoncoveney pulled a bombastic stroke and got found out. His arrogance on the @RTENewsAtOne was astounding. Who is advising this guy? @chrisrdonoghue @k_zappone 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
So have I got this right – the attorney general has effectively thrown most of the coronavirus restrictions out the window, in order to give Leo Varadkar some political cover for the Zappone farce? Please, somebody set me straight without delay if I'm incorrect.

The answer is they really shouldn’t & they probably won’t. Housing will end the @FineGael & @fiannafailparty because of the absolute disdain they have for young people&others having the temerity to want to own their own home.I’ve voted for these parties in the past, won’t again
My weekly column - Just why would young people vote for Fine Gael or Fianna Fàil https://t.co/7JY8n0KMAO

Sometimes a poet comes along who you know will be a significant voice. Step up @Maj_Kelly. I think we’ve found our new Boland.
Brenda Fricker pays a special tribute to the women and children of Ireland's Mother and Baby Homes with this performance of 'Voice' by Majella Kelly. #LateLate

Unfortunate interview! Bring back @SimonHarrisTD fast. Why is @DonnellyStephen being so blasé about our children’s safety?
💬“There's things we do in life that inherently carry a risk & we’ve got to manage that risk… that’s what the measures are about” Health Minister Stephen Donnelly has defended the new COVID-19 restrictions & the decision to reopen schools @ZaraKing | #VMNews | @DonnellyStephen

Congrats to #ClaireByrne — hope she does a great job. Was quietly rooting for #sarahmcinerney who was brilliant but here’s hoping the @TodayRadioRTE will go from strength to strength.
