At 19 June 2009 a total of 289 school principals (230 primary school and 59 secondary, community and comprehensive schools) had formally advised my Department of their retirement during 2009. The corresponding total in the case of deputy principals is 205 of which 166 are primary and 39 are secondary, community and comprehensive. The figures for post-primary teachers do not include VEC teachers where the retirements and pension benefit awards are made by the relevant VEC.
