Written Answers. - Special Educational Needs.
I am aware of the case to which the Deputy refers.
The application from Gowran national school for a special needs assistant is being considered at present. I have asked my Department's inspectorate to investigate the special care needs of pupils attending the school with a view to putting any necessary support services in place.
