In fairness, he’s changed tack. Yesterday it was demanding peopke be put it twnts and today he’s standing outside tracky’s house screaming at him to read his emails and tell him the plan. Tomorrow will be a belter.
A plan usually entails predicting possible problems and mitigating against them
Language issues, outside of relying on the community and kids natural ability to pick them up, a plan to have translators in place for serious issues etc. There will be communication barriers. Relying on the “kids” and community isn’t good enough
What about secondary school kids, are there supports in place for them re: language and curriculum? How many will be expected to pick up the Irish curriculum, will Ukrainian curriculum be provided for them?
Logistics - Which schools will they go to? How close are those schools to their temporary accommodation. How will they get to/from school.
How many will stay in the Irish school systems long term? How many will go back? Those going back would be best served by getting remote education. What are the provisions there?
It’s been close on 6 months and it just seems to be fly by night, yerra they’ll be grand type stuff
When you look at the scale we have now - just in time might be just about working. But if the war escalates and the situation gets worse, we can’t scale without planning and joined up thinking and nothing tangible is being done in any sector
my reading of his update email was that he saw the death, horror & the worst of mankind on the eastern front & survived but he didnt think he was mentally right & strong enough to continue posting on TFK
