Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

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

Ms Teresa Griffin:

The situation we are highlighting this year is that we have been unable to get agreement from sufficient schools to open special classes. In that area, for example, we are opening 13 special classes. We have been unable to get another eight. When we look more closely at the situation, we see that some schools simply do not have enough space. They just cannot expand.
