The review of the one teacher schools is ongoing. The Deputy will be aware that, as an exceptional matter, I approved the appointment, or retention where appropriate, of a mainstream teacher in addition to the Principal for the current school year in the schools which had projected that the appropriate number of pupils required (12) for such appointment or retention would be achieved at end September, 2006. The position of the schools which did not qualify for this concession is being considered in the context of the reports which have been submitted by my Department's Inspectors in relation to them.
