Sorry, Bob, but I think that there is something wrong with your sound. It sounds as though you are very far away.
I am told that it is all right on the broadcast and that everyone in the room can hear you well enough. Please carry on.

I have no doubt that, despite your best efforts, some young people were left behind.

With regard to your comment about the teachers’ experience being reflected in the experience of the young people, one of the schools that we spoke to last week highlighted the need for fun to be put back into learning. I think that that is an expression of what you have just been talking about.

It is interesting that the OECD called on us to restate and re-evaluate our vision of curriculum for excellence, which, in essence, is what you have just both said. Ross Greer has a supplementary question on this.

It must have been difficult to maintain any kind of meaningful communication with the young people during that time. Teachers were struggling as well. How did you cope?
