Special Need Assistants employed in Primary, Voluntary Secondary, Community and Comprehensive schools are paid directly through my Department's centralised payroll system. They are paid on an incremental salary scale with part-time SNAs paid a salary based on the hours that they actually work. A table detailing the salary scale applicable to SNAs in both primary and post-primary schools (including the VEC sector), from 1 June, 2006 is as follows. It is also available on my Department's website at www.education.ie. under "Education Personnel" and "Payroll".
