I would like to thank the Deputy for raising the question and I would advise the following.

The allocation of resources based on Ukrainian enrolments is updated once a month by my Department.

For the school in question when the data was extracted from Primary Online Database (POD) for the December update the school did not meet the enrolment threshold for an SNA post or part thereof to be allocated.

The allocations based on Ukrainian enrolments for the month of January is presently be updated and if the school Ukrainian enrolment data on POD meets the relevant threshold the school will be advised of any applicable SNA allocation by letter from the NCSE and the resource will be effective from the 29th January 2023.
