PQ 131
177 Deputy Stephen Donnelly asked the Minister for Education and Skills the reasons for the discrepancy in average class sizes per county across the country; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that County Wicklow has the highest proportion of children in classes of 30 or more students; if he will give a guarantee that, should there be measures in budget 2012 to increase average class sizes, these will not impact on children who are already in classes of 30 students or more; if his further attention has been drawn to the fact that, according to the OECD, Ireland has the second highest average class sizes in Europe; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
