Today with David McCullagh · Do we need to embrace more hybrid working and online learning to cope with the energy crisis? · 22 Apr 2026 podcast

Now, the reality is that you don't need to schedule 12 hours.

You can schedule that into one day and then actually have another six hours delivered online.

What you're doing is thinking about and putting that planning in place now.

Online learning is not as bad as people make it out to be if planned and put in place with the targeted in-person engagement along with it.

There are cohorts that we can do this with.

We will end up maybe facing this issue when we get to September, October, if the crisis continues.

But why wait until then to start thinking about it when we can start having an active conversation with people who are looking at workload, with people who are looking at the commutes of students, with people who are looking at planning for accommodation for students, even coming up to August.

And being told that maybe we can reduce down the amount of accommodation required, the amount of commute required.

I think it's a logical conversation to have.

But I do know that I'm sitting probably on the wrong side of many people out there who are looking at this and thinking, my God, the impact.

But we have to be practical about it.

The Claire Byrne Show · Could the energy crisis mean a return to remote learning? · 22 Apr 2026 podcast

Good morning, Clare.

I think we should be thinking about it and we should be planning.

This is the time to consider what are the best options coming into winter.

We had the experience of COVID.

It arrived in and immediately every educational institute responded really well with online learning.

with supports put in place, but it was rushed.

It was often people struggling to try to figure out what best to do.

Here we know we more than likely may have an energy crisis coming in.

And when we look at the financial costs to most education buildings, it's energy intensive.
