The parents of children attending a Special School in Co Galway have written to the Ministers for Education and for Special Education and Inclusion appealing to them to make provision for their children, and complaining that children with severe to profound intellectual disabilities have been "completely forgotten and left behind again".
In a letter to Norma Foley and Josepha Madigan the Parents' Association of Rosedale school in Oranmore say that from tomorrow education provision is in place for almost all children except children like theirs.
They say that adult disability day services will also continue. Rosedale school caters for children with severe and profound intellectual disabilities.
