Tusla chief concerned about effect of school closures during Covid-19 crisis on children at risk
The chief executive of Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, has expressed concern about the effect of school closures during the Covid-19 emergency on children at risk.
Bernard Gloster told RTÉ radio’s Morning Ireland that number of referrals to the agency was significantly down since schools closed last month. Schools usually make up a quarter of reports to Tusla each year regarding children at risk.
