Special Educational Needs
Dail Éireann — 2026-09-30
============================================================

Catherine Ardagh (FF), Dublin South-Central

I thank the Deputy again. I outlined all the work the Minister of State, Deputy Moynihan, is doing. It is important to remember the vast majority of students with a special educational need are supported to attend a school, most of them in mainstream with a cohort attending special schools.
I once again acknowledge the parents. It is very important we bring issues like this to the House. I will make sure the Minister of State, Deputy Moynihan, is aware of this school and that the NCSE reaches out to those parents again. I think the Deputy's main message today was the miscommunication from the Department and that has to be addressed. I will make sure I bring that back to the Minister of State.
