Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection
General Scheme of Education (Admission to Schools) Bill 2013: Discussion
2:40 pm
Ms Deirdre O'Connor:
The withdrawal of resources for Traveller children in 2011 was kind of an unintended consequence of a move towards integration. In view of the disadvantages that Traveller children have experienced, there is a need for additional support for Traveller children in primary schools, as there is for children with special educational needs.
