| < 3 year olds | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | M | Ministry of Science and Education database for school year 2014/2015 | The data in Question 4 includes a number of pupils who are educated in separate special classes in mainstream schools. In the Ministry's database, it is impossible to separate them from the pupils educated in separate special schools because they are in the same programme. Furthermore, the numbers in this table do not completely match the data given in the table entitled 'Learners with an official decision of SEN', because pupils in institutions maintained by the education, health, social and justice sectors are placed in separate special age groups (14–17-year-olds are placed together and 17–21-year-olds are placed together). Number of pupils in the 14–17 age group: 392; number of pupils in the 17–21 age group: 543. |
