Written Answers. - Special Educational Needs.

Cecilia Keaveney

Question:

393 Cecilia Keaveney asked the Minister for Education and Science if a person (details supplied) in County Donegal who is entitled to three and a half hours of resource teaching per week is only getting two and a quarter hours per week. [29303/00]

The pupil referred to by the Deputy is on the caseload of a resource teacher for children with special needs.

I understand that the school, which the pupil attends, has made application to my Department for additional support, following receipt of a recent psychological assessment.

My Department's inspectorate is currently examining this application. When this examination is completed officials in my Department will be in touch with the school authorities.

Question No. 394 taken with Question No. 386.
