Amharc ar fhreagraI wish to thank the school for their offer of assistance. My Department is considering in close consultation with other relevant bodies and departments, particularly the Department of Further and Higher Education, Innovation and Science on active measures to support intensive English language learning for post-primary age children who may have very low levels of English proficiency so that they can be supported in fully accessing appropriate educational experiences. Further details will be made available as quickly as possible.
