Parents and Guardians seeking placement for their child in a new special class or special school for school year 2027/2028, should now notify the National Council for Special Education.
The NCSE are advising that parents complete the online form by September 1st 2026.
Please note that if you do not have the required documentation yet, they are encouraging you to submit the form anyway.
Supporting documentation can be provided up until the 15th of September or as soon as possible after that date.
Your local SENO will contact you directly if you have completed the form without the required documentation attached.
