Abstract

The idea for Towards a Better Future was inspired by a review of the Finnish education system presented by Professor Pasi Sahlberg at a conference for school leaders. It prompted the question of whether it would be worthwhile to undertake similar research on the Irish education system. To our knowledge, there is no publication that gives a comprehensive overview and analysis covering contemporary early childhood, primary and second-level education in Ireland.
