Teacher Recruitment

Richard Bruton (Dublin Bay North, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
We are recruiting teachers at a faster rate than ever in the history of the State. A stable number of graduates are coming out of the colleges. We have a steady level of supply. However, there are issues that need to be addressed such as substitution and subject areas. I think the Deputy was present when I outlined the initiatives we were taking to address these issues. I am establishing a teacher supply steering group to develop a strategy to meet these pressures.
