Welcome to the new Special Needs Assistants Group website.

Welcome to the Special Needs Assistants Group website. We have added information and links which we hope will provide support for all SNAs as well as teachers and parents.

Special Needs Assistants Group is a group which aims to provide on-going professional development and training for Special Needs Assistants. We aim to deliver courses and seminars throughout Ireland, and have one Annual Conference each year.

Parents, teachers and other professionals also find our seminars and conferences of great interest and benefit, and regularly attend. We aim to expand our repertoire and access base, to be more inclusive of adults seeking information and understanding of children with all special needs. We therefore welcome any parent, teacher or preschool professional who would wish to attend seminars, workshops or conferences, as well as those SNAs already registered with us.
