Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Education Needs of Visually Impaired Students: Discussion

11:00 am

Ms Derval Healy:

In terms of summer provision, and it is probably to repeat some of what was said already, it is looking at a working group around service providers. It must have a vision first approach to it. By that I mean, we are utilising the skills that are required from visually impaired people within that summer programme. On a national basis, again it is the service providers coming together and showing the expertise they have and then talking to the Department on how that can be distilled down in a correct timeframe.
