Hi everyone, Myself and colleagues within the School of Education at Trinity College Dublin are conducting funded research for the National Council for Special Education (see http://www.ncse.ie): (i) A three year longitudinal research project, which aims to carry out the most in-depth study of special and inclusive education ever conducted in Ireland (see http://www.projectiris.org/). (ii) A study exploring 'transition' issues for students with SEN moving from secondary school to FE / HE. The research will be over the next 18mths and will explore, via multi-methods, the barriers and facilitatory factors involved in the transition process. The outcomes are to help increase the number of students with SEN successfully transferring to FE / HE. With this in mind, is there any particular research / policy / practice / issues / solutions / barriers / suggestions etc that you think we should be concerned with ?? I am coordinating the 'transitions' project and would be delighted to receive all comments / suggestions off list ([log in to unmask]). Thanks, Conor Mc Guckin
