Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
Use of Reduced Timetables: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Orla Hanahoe:
We have so much to think about. We are trying to engage with parents who do not really have the capacity. We are trying to help them and get them to appointments. I have huge empathy with the parents with ten or 11 year old boys who might be hitting them at home. These are parents who are trying to manage them or their sensory needs and who have no education themselves so they need more support as well.
