I also wish to touch on the role of special needs assistants, SNAs. We all know SNAs are a valuable part of our education system, but they also work closely with vulnerable students. What specific supports are being given to SNAs? We had some conversation already concerning PPE, but I am referring to aspects such as other guidance etc.. In addition, if school attendance is going to be part-time or partial, how will that impact on the work of SNAs with specific students and their employment conditions?
