During summer 2023 there will be opportunities for temporary work in special schools running this year’s Summer Programme. This will provide opportunities locally for all students in relevant courses and areas of study such as therapeutic/medical/social care courses, and other similar courses.

About the Summer Programme

The Summer Programme allows all primary and post-primary schools to offer a summer programme for students with complex special educational needs and those at greatest risk of educational disadvantage.
