Edward Nealon
Question:155 Mr. Nealon asked the Minister for Education if her attention has been drawn to the fact that in Carraroe national school, County Sligo, the only accommodation for one teacher and her class of 30 children of seven to eight year olds is the assembly hall; that as a result, most of the activities carried on previously in the assembly hall had to be cancelled, that on Mondays, when the physical education classes in the assembly hall cannot be cancelled, the class of 30 children has to move continuously all day bringing bags, coats and lunch boxes with them from classroom to classroom with the consequent disruption in those classrooms for other teachers and other classes; that the heating in the assembly hall is inadequate for a classroom; the steps, if any, which are being taken to provide an extra classroom in Carraroe national school in view of this continuous disruption for the class and the teacher; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
