Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection

Down's Syndrome Education Equality: Discussion

1:35 pm

Ms Gina Grant:

Ms Buckley made the point on assessments. Assessments are carried out at the age of three. My son was assessed at the age of three and I was told he would not get help entering the school system. One is told one's child will not get an SNA, for example. This makes it very difficult. Ms Buckley just said everything I was going to say. A child cannot get reassessed.
