Title:

Description:
The National Council for Special Education (NCSE) was set up to improve the delivery of education services to persons with special educational needs (SEN) arising from disabilities. The Council was first established in December 2003.
The NCSE is an independent civil service body under the aegis of the Department of Education and Skills (DES). The Headquarters of the NCSE is located in Trim, Co. Meath and it has 30 local offices throughout the State.

The project was established in 2018 by the Department of Education and Skills, The Department of Health and the Department of Children and Youth Affairs to promote inclusion by informing the development of a sustainable model of OT and SLT support in education.
