I take it that the Deputy is referring to special needs assistant support for the pupil in question. I understand from the NCSE that the pupil is in receipt of full-time special need assistant, SNA, support and that this level of support has not been reduced. I also wish to confirm that the school has indicated to the local special educational needs organiser, SENO, that further professional documentation in respect of this pupil will be available shortly. The pupil's needs will be considered further by the SENO as soon as this documentation has been examined. My Department will be in contact with the school as soon as this process has been completed.
