The therapists will part of the new Educational Therapy Support Service (ETSS), which was established in June 2024.
The recruitment campaign will see the appointment of 39 occupational and speech and language therapists as well as 5 behaviour practitioners on a permanent basis to the National Council for Special Education (NCSE). Previously, these positions could only be filled on a temporary basis, which made it more difficult to recruit for them.
