I dtaobh: Leasuithe ar an bPolasaí Ligean isteach i Scoileanna
A Chairde,
Tá tús feidhme curtha leis an Acht Oideachais (Socrú i Leith Leanaí a bhfuil Riachtanais Speisialta Oideachais Acu) 2022. Ag éirí ó thús feidhme an Achta seo, is gá do gach scoil a bPolasaí Ligean Isteach Scoile a leasú. De réir Alt 62 den Acht Oideachais, is gá aon leasú a chur i bhfeidhm i ndiaidh próiseas comhairliúcháin leis an bhfoireann, le tuismitheoirí agus le mic léinn.
Beidh an dá ráiteas seo a leanas sa leasú/athrú ar Pholasaí Ligean Isteach na scoile le cur sa Roinn faoi Ráiteas Ligean Isteach de Pholasaí Ligean Isteach na scoile:
"Comhlíonfaidh Coláiste na Coiribe le haon ordúchán a sheirbheálfar ar an mbord nó ar an bpátrún faoi alt 37A agus 67(4)(b)."
"Comhoibreoidh Coláiste na Coiribe leis an CNOS i gcomhlíonadh fheidhmeanna na Comhairle faoin Acht um Oideachas do Dhaoine a bhfuil Riachtanais Speisialta Oideachais Acu, 2004 maidir le soláthar oideachais do leanaí a bhfuil riachtanais speisialta oideachais acu, lena n-áirítear soláthar agus feidhmiú rang nó ranganna speisialta nuair a iarrann an Chomhairle a leithéid."
Is iad na hathruithe i gcló iodálach thuas, agus na hathruithe sin amháin, na leasuithe atá molta don Pholasaí Ligean Isteach i láthair na huaire. Is riachtanais dhleathacha iad na leasuithe atá molta.
Má tá aon tuairim agat nó aiseolas le tairiscint I dtaobh an ábhair seo, bheinn buíoch díot ach sin a dhéanamh le casadh ríomhphoist chugamsa eoghan.oceallaigh@gretb.ie faoin 19/12/2022.
Is mise, le meas,

Dear Parent/Staff member/Student/,

As per Section 62 of the Education Act, any amendment must take place after a consultation process with staff, parents and students.The proposed amendment/change to the Admission Policy of the school is to include the following two statements in the Admission Statement Section of a school’s Admission Policy:
“Coláiste na Coiribe will comply with any direction served on the board or the patron under section 37A and 67(4)(b).”

“Coláiste na Coiribe will cooperate with the NCSE in the performance by the Council of its functions under the Education for Persons with Special Educational Needs Act 2004 in relation to the provision of education to children with special educational needs, including in particular by the provision and operation of a special class or classes when requested to do so by the Council.”
