Jill Cochrane guides a discussion surrounding integrated education, whilst taking questions from a live studio audience.

Various points of view are conveyed; "if children are educated together would they later have a better understanding and tolerance of each other?"

Sister Genevieve (Principle St. Louise's Comprehensive College), Peter McGaffin (Principle Hazelwood P.S.), Sean Farren (University of Ulster) and Dr. Brian Mawhinney (Minister for Education NI) make up the panel and respond to these questions, whilst putting across their own opinions. 

Other topics of discussion include;  the rights and needs of ethnic minorities in relation to education, the parental right to choose how their child is educated and a comparison between Northern Ireland and the USA, regarding the extent to which religion informs education.
