Speaking of Edcuation Matters Yearbook, Dr Hall said: "This is a living, contemporaneous history of the key developments in Irish education. Accessible, current and engaging, it provides an invaluable, unified resource of information about education - practice, policy and pedagogy. I am delighted to take on the role of Editor." It is important for Irish education that all the partners - all of whom are represented in the book - cooperate to establish this publication on a firm and permanent footing as an annual resource for education professionals and others interested in education.
