We welcome resource and remedial teachers. Is it fair that those professional people are working in corridors and converted cloakrooms of national schools, rural and urban? Can they perform their professional duties in such conditions? The Minister should address that issue as a matter of urgency. He cannot claim that this Government or the previous one had any real input into what happened to pupil-teacher ratios. The population has declined, with a consequential decline in intake at primary level. That is the major reason for the decline in average pupil-teacher ratios. Average figures hide reality. That is what the Minister wants.
