Programme 25, Part 1, Selection from 2009 Programmes, (27-12-09)

Presented and produced by Seán Delaney This is a selection of clips from Inside Education programmes in 2009. It is a good place to start if you want to find out what Inside Education is about.

In this first part you will hear clips from the following programmes: 1.Séamus Heaney on poetry and pedagogy (from Programme 18) 2. Don Thornhill (Chairman of the National Competitiveness Council), Brian Hayes (Fine Gael Education spokesman) and Joe Mulholland (Director of the MacGill Summer School) from the MacGill Summer School in Glenties, Co.
