Covid-19 (Education and Skills): Statements

============================================================

Gino Kenny (PBP), Dublin Mid-West

My second question is about students with special educational needs in DEIS schools. They have more than likely been experiencing difficulties, especially engaging in remote learning in the past two months. Does the Department have plans to ameliorate the loss of teaching time for these students and to increase the number of special education teachers and SNAs in September or October of the next academic year?
