PQ 385
385 Deputy Simon Harris asked the Minister for Education and Skills his views on the findings of a recent EUROSTAT study which shows that Irish persons between the ages of 16-24 years are less likely than the average European person of that age to have the skills to carry out basic computer functions such as calculating information on spreadsheets; his views on whether this highlights a need to re-examine the reason that students here are taught computer technology in schools; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
