My officials have engaged with City of Dublin Education and Training Board (CDETB) on this matter. The ETB has indicated that a needs assessment was undertaken by the College in conjunction with National Learning Network (NLN) prior to the learner’s commencement on the course. The College put a range of supports in place and having engaged further with the learner, met with the National Council for the Blind, NLN and the Ann Sullivan Centre to ensure they have all the necessary supports in place. I understand that CDETB have approved the provision of an additional support for the learner which they advise is being prioritised to ensure their return to on-site learning as soon as possible.
