Question:391 Ms Shortall asked the Minister for Education and Science the reason, further to Parliamentary Question No. 28 of 31 January 2002, in assessing schools for funding, the scheme is not available to schools which have had more than 2% of pupils assessed; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that this discriminates against schools in disadvantaged areas where a far higher percentage of students would require psychological intervention; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
