Written answers

Regional Education and Language Teams, or REALTs, were established as part of the Department of Education’s response to the humanitarian crisis arising from the war in Ukraine.  REALTs assist Ukrainian families in securing school places.

Families who have recently moved into the accommodation referred to by the Deputy are currently being assisted by the REALT coordinator to locate school places.

If the nearest schools do not have capacity, then transport will be sought to other schools with available capacity within the locality.
