I understand from my officials that a section 29 appeal against Kildare Wicklow Education and Training Board (ETB) on behalf of this case has now concluded.

It is now open to the parents of the child in question to take a section 29 appeal to the Secretary General of my Department.

My Department has no authority to compel a school to admit a pupil, except in the case of an appeal under section 29 of the Education Act, 1998 being upheld.
