Special Educational Needs: Motion
6:00 pm
Brian Ó Domhnaill (Fianna Fail)
There are 7,800 resource and learning support teachers compared with approximately 2,000 in 1998, an almost 300% increase in the number of teachers in mainstream schools supporting children with special educational needs. Some 1,100 other teachers are in our special schools supporting children while hundreds more work in special classes. How much time remains?
