@mickfinn01@MichealLehane To me this announcement reads like they won’t cut as many SNAs for September but will do it over a number of years. Still in the same boat, taking away essential supports for children with AEN.
@McGinn_B@MichealLehane They play around with the figures every year to make it appear that there is an overall increase. Lots of fragmented posts (.83, .75, .66, .50, .33, .25). I’d love to see how many of the 25000 have a full time position in September?
@MichealLehane So about an extra 600 new entrants. Still a drop in the ocean for what is needed in schools to really support students appropriately. Another “nothing to see here “ policy for the Department.
@caulmick This is a pause of a pause. These review started last yr with some schools seeing a significant decrease in their SNA allocations. Those losses where paused as the redevelopment had’t been finalised (still hasn’t) The recent losses are a continuation which has also been paused.
