Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Special Educational Needs: Impact of Covid-19 (Resumed)

Mr. Dalton Tattan:

That is our hope. We believe the advice we have moves us a long way towards that. We need to engage with primary and post-primary stakeholders to plan for that and ensure we can have that in place. We know there is a sweet spot. It is currently in our interest to wait and see whether things continue to improve in the manner they have thus far - which is very positive - and only finalise at that point. Obviously, things could change, as other members of the committee alluded to earlier. We need to allow a certain amount of additional time to see how the situation develops in order to ensure our advice for September is as accurate as possible.
