Educational outcomes at third level and beyond are often determined in primary education. As has been mentioned, schools are facing a cost crisis due to inflation, insurance costs, etc., but the capitation grant of €200 is basically at the same level it was 13 years ago. I am not looking for a firm commitment today, but will the Tánaiste confirm whether an increase in the capitation grant, minor works grant and ancillary grant will be a priority in the consideration of the forthcoming budget in the autumn?
