Abstract

According to the Association of Remedial Teachers of Ireland, while remedial education has influenced significantly the whole nature of schooling in Ireland, it is nobody's brainchild. The system of remedial education has no administrative base of its own. There is no individual, no department nor section of a department given over to the administration of remedial education nor does this Report call for such a development. Remedial Education - with no base of its own - is seen as "an also ran".
