3 in 4 primary school principals would say that SET allocations are insufficient.
Sinn Féin's Education Spokesperson is calling on the government to review changes to the allocation of the Special Education Teaching hours.
Longford Westmeath TD Sorca Clarke says removing the criteria of 'complex needs' and instead focusing on the performance of standardised testing in numeracy and literacy is completely nonsensical.
A poll by the National Principals' Forum, found over three quarters of primary school principals believe the SET allocations for 2024-2025 are insufficient.
Deputy Clarke says children with complex needs will regress if not given the right supports:
