I have raised the issue with the Minister of the number of retired teachers taking over jobs, be it on a part-time basis, for a short time or for a long time. I do not see why schools have full autonomy when the Department pays all the salaries. I appreciate the Minister's work in the area, and when these teachers do take up posts their salaries are at the bottom of the scale, but when we have so many newly qualified teachers looking for jobs we should investigate this area further.
