View answerI would like to assure the Deputy that the provision of accommodation for pupils with special education needs is a priority for my Department and my officials are aware of the pressing requirement for the provision of post primary classes for pupils with special education needs in Ballincollig.
My Department is working to put appropriate accommodation in place as quickly as possible in order to facilitate the establishment of classes for pupils with special education needs at the earliest possible date.
