Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities at Local Level: Discussion

Ms Delia Goodman:

A lot of work has been done on transitions from preschool to primary schools. We try to do much of that work and support educators in that. We have some documents such as My Inclusion Plan that can be shared with primary schools. There is also the National Council for Curriculum Development, NCCA, Mo Scéal. That can also support the transition. Let's Get Ready was developed during Covid-19 to support the transition from preschool to primary school. We know that more work needs to be done on it and that as been written into the draft autism strategy in terms of supports for early learning and care educators to support the transition of children into primary school and whether the primary school is open to accessibility information.
