The Education Authority has proposed that it takes over the management of the school rather than the board of governors.It also said there would be no impact on the education of pupils.

The EA is proposing that the same service is provided for children and young people, but under the management of the authority rather than the school. "While there is a continued requirement for the services provided by the Belfast Hospital School, the need for a dedicated special school for hospitalised children has been diminished by the changing profile of children and their treatment plans.The EA said, though, there was an increasing need for support for children with mental-health problems.
"The board of governors will be stood down and there will be no direct governance of the school's functions."
