A teachers trade union is calling on the government to reduce classroom sizes to 19 pupils per group.

This stands in contrast to counties like Longford, where the average class size is just 20.9 pupils.

General Secretary of the union, John Boyle, says reducing class sizes is vital in shaping Ireland's education system:
