Seán Crowe
Question:
150
Mr. Crowe
asked the
Minister for Education and Science
if his attention has been drawn to the concerns of the principal, and parents of children attending Scoil Treasa national school, Ballycullen Avenue, Firhouse, Dublin 24, that the school has been refused sanction for a 15th assistant on a provisional basis in the academic year 2002-03 supposedly due to the fact that it will be one pupil short of the number required for the teacher allocation to include this 15th assistant; if his Department has considered the possible implications this will have on overcrowding; and if the school's request to be sanctioned for a 15th assistant will be examined.
