Public Accounts Committee

2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 26 - Education and Skills

9:00 am

Mr. Dalton Tattan:

Under the old allocation model for resource teaching there was not equality. People who could afford it could procure that assessment and then come in to school and say they wanted five hours a week or whatever it might be. The idea now is that the school would be given an allocation so it should create equity. It is not about an ability to pay but about identifying the children with the greatest needs and how can we best meet them.
