I can confirm to the Deputy that the child in question has a full-time school placement and is in receipt of 5 hours resource teaching support per week together with full-time special needs assistant support in the school. The child is also receiving support from my Department's Visiting Teacher Service. I regret that it is not possible to provide additional tuition in the home.
