View answerI can confirm that my Department received an application from the school in question for additional accommodation for a sensory room.
Applications for sensory rooms may only be considered where a school has approval from the National Council for Special Education (NCSE) for a special class. As the school in question does not have approval from the NCSE for a special class, the application was unsuccessful and the school has been advised accordingly.
