The National Council for Special Education (NCSE) is an independent statutory body established to improve the delivery of education services to persons with special educational needs arising from disabilities with particular emphasis on children and young people.
Currently NCSE supports are delivered via our regional teams comprising of:
- Special Educational Needs Organisers (SENOs) who interact with parents and schools to support children with special education needs.
- Advisors who provide continuing professional development (CPD)/ Teacher Professional Learning (TPL) and in-school support to schools in the area of special educational needs.
- Visiting teachers (VTs) who support children and young people who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing or Blind/Visually Impaired, their families and their teachers.
- On a pilot basis, the NCSE have Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language Therapists and Behaviour Practitioners who provide professional learning and in-school support to schools to build schools’ capacity to support students with special education needs.
