A programme that develops pathways to further education, training and employment for students with special educational needs is to be rolled out in Kerry.
A collaboration between Inspired Tralee and a Dublin-based disability group will see the WALK PEER Supported Transition programme rolled out across a number of special needs schools in Kerry.
This partnership has been made possible by funding from the Dormant Accounts Fund.
