I have raised the matter of home school community liaison officers in special schools via written parliamentary questions and occasionally via an oral parliamentary question. The response from the Department has been that special schools get an allocation of teachers which is far in excess of a mainstream school. However, the specific focus of a home school community liaison officer is to involve and support parents. We need to look at it seriously and I hope the Minister might consider that in the preparation of future budgets.
