The Regional Education and Language Team or REALT will assist families to secure school places, support schools providing places for Ukrainian children - including by providing laptops and tablets, and respond to the local need for English Language classes.
REALT will include professionals and representatives from Tusla’s Education Support Service, school psychological services, special education needs specialists and school management bodies
REALT will also support schools to meet the needs of these children as they emerge, and support the Department in developing new capacity where required.
