Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 940 and 941 together.
My Department's published projections of enrolments at primary level include both mainstream primary pupils and pupils in special schools and classes, and we do not publish separate figures for each of these groups.
The relevant figures the Deputy is seeking can be found on page 7 of the most recent projections of enrolment published by my Department at http://www.education.ie/en/Publications/Statistics/Statistical-Reports/Projections-of-full-time-enrolment-Primary-and-Second-Level-2014-2032.pdf
