Learning From Home
Text of the speech of An Taoiseach March 17th 2020

Learning online cannot replace the traditional classroom because it is by its very essence or nature not completely 'real.' Teaching on the Internet is teaching in virtual reality, but not in reality. Therefore it does not replace the school timetable. It most certainly cannot replace the encouraging word or the support of a teacher in the classroom. It does however make resources and guidance available to students. But it is up to students with the support of parents/guardians to manage their time and how they use and interact with those resources. In the current very exceptional circumstances delivery may be uneven due to a range of factors - limits placed on school staff in terms of access, broadband speed, social distancing requirements and the absence of a lead period to put systems in place. We know that as always we can rely on your support as we navigate this difficult time. However, rest assured that everyone at St. Mary's will do their very best to help you and your student.
