I spoke earlier to a representative of SNAs and asked him what his members were encountering. He spoke of a sense of relief because there had been a sense of isolation for many children, particularly those with special needs, during the lockdown and the following period of absence from school. Ms Dempsey also spoke of a similar feeling of isolation and abandonment that parents had. Would she share that sense of relief that the schools are open and children are now back in schools?
