As the Deputy is aware, a new general allocation scheme has been announced under which schools will be given resource teaching hours, based on their enrolment figures, to cater for children with high-incidence special needs such as dyslexia and with learning support needs. The introduction of the scheme will involve the provision of approximately 340 additional permanent posts in primary schools from September. A further 320 posts will be provided on a temporary basis to facilitate the transition to the new system and to ensure continuity of service for children who have previously been given an individual allocation until they leave the primary school system. The general allocation for the school in question is 20 part-time hours. The Department of Education and Science has received a proposal from the school about the deployment of its allocation. I have arranged for an official from the Department to contact the school to discuss the proposal further.
