  271.  Cecilia Keaveney  Information on Cecilia Keaveney  Zoom on Cecilia Keaveney   asked the Minister for Education and Science  Information on Micheál Martin  Zoom on Micheál Martin   the measures, if any, which will be taken to improve the level of remedial teaching service to all primary schools in County Donegal particularly those without a service and those part of a large cluster; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13579/99]

Minister for Education and Science (Mr. Martin): Information on Micheál Martin  Zoom on Micheál Martin  My priority at present is to ensure that all schools which currently have no remedial service, including schools in County Donegal, will be given access to this service from September next. Arrangements to put this extension of service in place are currently being made in my Department. As part of this development, primary schools with a pupil teacher ratio of below 10:1 and which currently have no remedial service, may apply for a service where they can demonstrate the particular needs of their pupils.
