After canvassing so many houses in I was moved by the stories of so many families struggling to access an education for their children who have different learning needs. I want to highlight the huge problem experienced by these families who have children with disabilities in the and the unmet educational needs of those families. The waiting lists are vast in Meath for an Assessment of Needs for example under the Disability Act 2005 and indeed the CAMHS service too. This is completely unacceptable that children's educational needs are being unmet in their own community both at Primary and Secondary level. There are either no spaces available or as in the case of Secondary school forced to travel huge distances to school. All children have an equal right to access education and this is enshrined in our Constitution and the Hct so held many years ago in the Sinnott v Min for Education case. .
