This is an operational matter for Dublin and Dun Laoghaire Education and Training Board.

Under the legislation providing for the establishment of Education and training Boards (ETBs), they are independent, autonomous entities with resources to deliver educational opportunities within their regions to the highest standard. ETB's are expected to manage their resources to provide the best service for all areas under their remit and this will lead to changes in provision in particular areas from time to time.
