129 Kathleen Lynch asked the Minister for Education the number and percentage of schools in which the stay safe programme is operating; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17656/95]
The returns in relation to the uptake of the Stay Safe Programme for the school year ending June 1995 revealed that 99.7 per cent of schools had availed of teacher training; 80 per cent of schools had held information meetings for parents; and just under 60 per cent were teaching the programme.
130 Mr. B. Smith asked the Minister for Education if she will sanction the provision of a remedial teaching service on a shared basis at an early date to a school (details supplied) in County Cavan in view of the urgent need to provide this service and the expectations of parents, teachers and the board of management that such an appointment would be made with effect from September 1995; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17664/95]
145 Dr. Moffatt asked the Minister for Education when she will announce the allocation of a remedial teacher to Bonniconlon, Carra and Bofield national schools, Ballina, County Mayo. [17847/95]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 130 and 145 together.
My Department has received applications from the schools in question for inclusion in the remedial teaching service.
