Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

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

Ms Teresa Griffin:

Some of those schools are getting extensions and we know that a couple of schools would have special classes in a couple of years when the buildings and spaces are done. Others would not. Between ourselves and the Department we have put a process in place so that when we identify three, four or five years ahead that there might be a shortage of places, we then contact the planning and building unit. We have been working together to try and improve that process so that in future this situation with regard to spaces should not arise.
