Traveller Education DVD Launch

Published: Wednesday, March 02, 2011

March 21 11.30am, Pavee Point Travellers' Centre, 46 North Great Charles Street, Dublin 1

Join us on International Day against Racism as we launch our latest DVD resource on education.

The DVD will be launched by Professor Tom Collins, President, NUI Maynooth

Pavee Parents: Post Primary Concerns features interviews with educators, students and Travellers who've successfully navigated their way through the education system.
Whilst Traveller retention into second-level education is at an historic high level, the number of Travellers successfully completing Junior and Leaving Cert is far too low. The DVD provides advice and reassurance to young Travellers and their parents of the value of 'staying on' in an accessible, easy to watch format.
