Our goal is to ensure that, as far is reasonably possible, all learners are provided with the supports required to allow full engagement and benefit from the educational opportunities available while participating in a course offered by Galway Roscommon Education and Training Board. 

TYPES OF SUPPORTS AVAILABLE

There is a range of supports available to GRETB learners including the following: 

  • Laptop Loan Scheme
