Both post-primary schools in this case have a dedicated service from my Department's National Educational Psychological Service (NEPS). I understand that the child in question was not prioritised for assessment by the school she is currently attending. I also understand that the school to which the child intends to transfer in September 2006 has requested an assessment and that the NEPS psychologist has undertaken to see the child in that school in September.
