Thanks @conorfhunt @rtenews for airing our concerns.

With massive waiting lists for vital therapies I understand the HSE has to do something

But removing a specialist service from over 70 kids who hugely depend on it, is not the way@HFSchoolDeaf1 https://t.co/8GWlk7Tacc

The Minister’s statement is very welcome but we need assurances from the HSE that the current in school SLT post will be retained permanently and our pupils can access additional supports from the HSE team local to Cabra. @HSELive @marie_sherlock @MarkWall1 https://t.co/vLxL5DLo0J

This is very welcome. Thank you Minister @AnneRabbitte .@HFSchoolDeaf1 has always said that a permanent on-site specialist speech and language therapy service is absolutely crucial for the pupils' development and their education.

We look forward to confirmation by the HSE. https://t.co/Dy4Ydoa56U
