School psychology service 'unaccountable' and on verge of 'collapse', warns principal

The National Educational Psychology Services (NEPS) is down about 20% of required staff at present.

Sources with experience of the schools psychology service told of how barely a handful of students in each school can avail of the treatment.

One principal warned that the service's refusal to operate waiting lists means there is little data on how many students require intervention.
