A Midlands TD is flagging a severe shortage of school places for children with disabilities.
Despite Colaiste Mhuire in Mullingar providing new special needs class spaces for 2025, there are still schools in need of classrooms and ASD units.
Sinn Féin TD for Longford - Westmeath Sorca Clarke is calling on the government to make this a priority, as many children are waiting for places in these classes.

Deputy Clarke says there is a lack of accountability which is failing children:
