The assignment of schools to psychologists in my Department's National Educational Psychological Service (NEPS) is subject to change for a variety of reasons. In the case of the school in question, the change was necessitated by promotion to managerial positions in NEPS. The school may avail of the Scheme for the Commissioning of Psychological Assessments (SCPA), details of which are available on my Department's website. The previously assigned psychologist will be happy to contact the school in early September 2006 to discuss appropriate referrals to SCPA and any other relevant issues which are of concern to the school principal.
