As you may be aware Norma Foley, Minister for Education, announced details of a limited reopening of schools for children with additional, complex needs late on Friday evening last. Our management body, the Catholic Primary Schools Management Association, has advised schools to await clarity on what children this directive applies to specifically. As you may appreciate, we are under a great deal of pressure to organise this limited reopening with such short notice and in such challenging circumstances. Please know that we are working on this and will be in contact with the relevant families as soon as possible.
