Protests are due to take place across the country as the Government faces a second round of controversy next week over proposed cuts to special needs assistant (SNA) posts. 

Demonstrations are planned for Cork, Dublin, Limerick, and Galway on Wednesday as anger continues after the review of next year's SNA allocations was "paused" following backlash from schools, parents, opposition TDs, and trade unions.
