Fine Gael TD for Mayo, Deputy Michelle Mulherin, has confirmed that Behymore National School, Ballina, has been allocated additional funding by the Department of Education and Skills for the construction of new facilities including a permanent autistic spectrum disorder (ASD ) classroom and a multi-sensory room. The funding follows the allocation of money earlier this year under the Prefab Replacement Programme.
Deputy Mulherin said: “The proposed classroom will be the only one in north Mayo and will be a vital piece of educational infrastructure that will support children from a huge geographical area.”
