Ms Maureen Conway:

I am sure every member of staff is looking for something completely different. We have been very badly hit by the allocation in respect of teachers. Ballyfermot College of Further Education is not a third level institution but a college of further education. It is a second level school. We do great things in this regard and run on a shoestring, as with many other further education colleges around the country. I would like to see a greater allocation for teachers.
