Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 30 January 2013
94. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he will review a decision to withdraw funding from a school (details supplied) in County Meath in respect of the July Programme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4787/13]
View answerThe Deputy will be aware that participation in my Department's July Provision Scheme is an option for all special schools and mainstream primary schools with special classes catering for children with autism or severe to profound general learning disability that choose to extend their education services through the month of July. The position in relation to the provision of this scheme in all qualifying schools, including the school referred to by the Deputy, is currently being considered and this school will be informed of arrangements pertaining to the scheme for 2013 once they are finalised.
