The staffing in the school referred to by the Deputy for the 2006/2007 school year is as follows:

1 Principal Post

2 Mainstream Class Teacher Posts

6 Permanent Developing School Posts

1 Permanent Learning Support/Resource Post

1 Permanent Special Class Post

3 Temporary Language Support Posts.

My Department recently received the September Salary Return form from the Board of Management of the School. This form indicated that there were 216 pupils enrolled in the school on the 30th September 2006. The assignment of classes in a primary school is a matter for the school authorities. Information in relation to classes is provided in the annual census of primary schools. The reference date for the provision by schools of this information is the 30th September of the school year in question.

As the details for the current school year have not been collated as of yet, I am not in a position to provide the information in relation to classes to the Deputy.
