TUI demands overhaul of further education
The union is widening its campaign for restructuring the sector, which has 30,000 students taking part in further education and Post Leaving Certificate (PLC) courses. It has sent postcards to students, to be signed and returned to the TUI, which will present them to the Department of Education.
TUI assistant general secretary Annette Dolan said it is three years since the McIver report called for major changes to how the sector is operated. However, the bulk of its contents have yet to be implemented as discussions continue on which elements get priority.
