IMPORTANT DOWNLOAD:
The long term strategy of focusing attention on Education Funding and the need to ‘lobby’ at a national level for an agreed % of GDP to be spent on all education, remains a long term strategy of the PPEF. There are short and medium term objectives which are particular to 2nd level which require some focus. Resources will not be our only focus in the immediate future. Our short term objective will be to come up with a vision document of where we want Education to be, and to look at how to continue to work forward in a realistic way with the resources currently available for 2nd level education.
