A great week showcasing a new @ctyi programme @DCU. We had a number of female students and kids from DEIS schools taking advanced Maths and Chemistry classes funded by Purposeful Ventures. The future is bright @OrlaDunne10 @SpillzHinch @hazel_skinner

@Colmdcu I am conducting PhD research on the lived experiences and inequalities of people labelled as ‘gifted and talented’. If you could kindly retweet this message, it would greatly help me in reaching participants for my study. Your support would be invaluable. 🙏🏻
