One of the parents affected says she's angry and frustrated by the situation.
There are 18 children in a midlands town in need of a special class place, but nowhere for them to go.
Those are the words of Athlone's Hilda Duignan, whose five-year son is one of those in need of an Autism class.
She's placing her hopes on her son joining her daughter in a school in Ballinasloe, but says she's unsure of the availability.
Ms. Duignan says if that doesn't work out, there's no Plan B:
A Senator says it's "unacceptable" there are 18 children in a midlands town still waiting to find a special class space for the upcoming school year.
Longford Senator and Chairperson of the Oireachtas Autism Committee Micheál Carrigy says there's more work to be done from the Government:
