42 Miss Fox asked the Minister for Education and Science if a remedial teacher will be provided for Talbotstown national school, Kiltegan, County Wicklow. [5803/00]
The school to which the Deputy refers is in receipt of a remedial teaching service.
Since September 1999 the remedial teaching service has been extended to all primary schools with a pupil-teacher ratio of 10:1 or above. Schools with lower pupil-teacher ratios may also seek remedial support from my Department where the level of their particular need warrants such a service.
