Minister to bring plan for first ever SNA strategy to Cabinet today

The minister is set to present a groundbreaking strategy for the Special Needs Assistant (SNA) workforce to the Cabinet today, marking the first comprehensive plan for SNAs. This move follows controversial proposals to reduce the number of SNAs in about 180 schools earlier this year, sparking debate over adequate support for students with special needs. The new strategy likely aims to address these concerns and set a clear direction for SNA roles and allocation, crucial for ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students.
