I wish to advise the Deputy that my Department's Circular 07/03, Appointments to Posts of Responsibility, outlines that due to the pivotal role of a Principal teacher in the overall management of a school, a Principal shall not undertake the duties of any type of a special education post. I have no plans to review this arrangement.
