Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Allocations of Special Education Teachers: Discussion

Dr. Fidelma Brady:

Absolutely. Therefore, we need to be on the same page. As Mr. Harris said, in a nutshell, there is a need for clearly defined guidelines on the provision of assessments and on the interpretation of the assessments by the SENOs. In my experience, sometimes it depends where a person is in the country. Children seem to be getting a lot more in one part of the country than in another. In certain instances, it depends on the personality of the SENO.
