This is how the autistic community is celebrated on World Autism Day and every day... Awareness alone doesn't cut it when our children can't even access the most basic rights: rte.ie/news/2024/0402…
The 'mind blowing' FACT here is that the principal took 19 weeks to inform the parents of a very serious alleged incident... NO excuse! This wouldn't happen if the child was verbal.. it's horrific
We urgently need a similar body to hiqa to inspect schools. Non verbal children are NOT safe in some schools. Our most vulnerable need protection, as this is not an isolated story: Isolation, restrain, suspensions and expulsions are rampant @NormaFoleyTD1 @SimonHarrisTD

rte.ie/news/2024/0327… Delighted with the Teaching Council ruling: there is absolutely NO excuse for not informing parents of an allegation of a serious incident for 19 weeks! Non verbal children are extremely vulnerable 😢
Can We Please ReTweet the Hell Out of This! If You Are Unsure on the ‘Care’ Referendum Wording at 42.B - Make No Mistake - It is a Thatcherite ‘No Society’ Declaration - in Our Constitution - that Care for Disabled is Responsibility of ‘Family’ - AKA ‘You’re on Your Own’ Vote NO

This rotten system has to change, no protection for the most vulnerable and families and SNAs are victimised even more when brave enough to report. It's sad, cruel and unfair! @josephamadigan @NormaFoleyTD1

This case is horrific, and the article doesn't reflect what that poor mother has gone trough since the incident happened years ago. 😢 I'm shocked at the lack of protection for our most vulnerable. The school waited a full 19 weeks to inform parents 😲 m.independent.ie/irish-news/edu…
Is this a joke? Since when our special education system should be an example? @josephamadigan : did you talk about isolation, suspensions and expulsions? You're well aware of the many issues in special education and yet you're proud of it?

As a mother, the very least you would expect when sending your children to school is for them to be safe. It's much more difficult when your child is non verbal and cannot explain what's happening. Our most vulnerable are not being protected! m.independent.ie/irish-news/edu…
I had the pleasure and the honour to meet Jonathan and had a good few conversations with him. I could have listened to him forever, such a wonderful and inspirational gentleman, the type of person you never forget ❤️ May he rest in peace

Thank you @santa_truck for making my son's day. The santa truck is the highlight of Christmas for him. He couldn't believe when Santa got out of the truck to say hello! Thank you for supporting @LauraLynnHouse you're amazing!
This is good news, let's hope they get the proper supports in order to be successful. There's no point opening special schools if they're not adequately resourced as we all know what happens then...

Well done to all the parents who contributed to make this happen. Many of you shared your horrific stories with our group and together with other parent's advocacy groups we can finally see some results! Next is to ban expulsions! irishtimes.com/ireland/educat…

Exclusion may be a last resort. We need to be aware of the micro-exclusions that happen every day. The ways children are slowly but surely pushed out of education, separated, removed, excluded.
Ewww the ableism here. No wonder schools are so toxic for disabled and ND children if this is what’s being pushed and celebrated
Also great to see that the site continues to develop. These posters were designed by our excellent librarian, Mr Harris, and are in every classroom - and now on the corridors to reinforce our message and ethos.
@MrDavidScales I take it you have no children in your care who are neurodivergent or have other disabilities for whom many of these messages are deeply discriminatory and really quite harmful. Just curious about what kind of training someone who rises to be a principal gets without being aware…
@ahumannamedCDW I cannot understand why any woman could support a partner abusing a child. She should also face the courts for aiding & abetting him. This should apply to all such cases.
