487 Mr. Neville asked the Minister for Education and Science if a one-to-one remedial teacher will be provided to a person (details supplied) in County Limerick. [22116/04]
View answerAn application for 2.5 hours per week resource teaching support was received for the pupil in question. The Deputy may be aware that I introduced a new weighted model of resource teacher allocation for pupils with special educational needs who, like the pupil in question, fall within the high-incidence disability categories.
It would be expected that the needs of the child in question can be met from within the current resource-learning support teaching allocation available to the school.
488 Mr. Neville asked the Minister for Education and Science if a resource teacher has been sanctioned for a person (details supplied). [22118/04]
View answerMy Department has approved 3.5 hours resource teaching per week for the pupil in question. The school authorities have been informed of this decision.
