This week (May 31st) the SNA allocations were released to primary schools. It had been promised that a new frontloading model was to be used but for a third year in a row, school allocations were frozen. In this episode, I examine:

• why the representative bodies rarely, if ever, publicly condemn the NCSE
• why the SNA allocations come out so late in the year
• whether there were actually 1,100 extra SNA posts sanctioned as the headlines read.

I also refer to a previous episode of the podcast: Scrap the NCSE
