Children get language help

AFTER writing hundreds of letters to the Government and quitting her job, Caroline O’Dwyer has finally won her two-year battle for her children to attend a special language school.

Mrs O’Dwyer had threatened to take the Government to court when her two children were initially turned away from such a school.

Seven-year-old Shannon O’Dwyer and her brother Paul, five, both suffer a profound language disorder. They have finally been granted a place at a special school tailored to their needs following their mother’s campaign.
