Circular Letter 46/00 sets out the arrangements for the delivery of self-financing part-time adult education programmes in second level schools and provides for a reduction of teaching hours for Directors of Adult Education, depending on the level of enrolment in the preceding year. The issue of a review of Circular Letter 46/00, regarding the provision of reduced teaching hours, was recently raised at the Teachers Conciliation Council. There was no agreement reached to revise the current arrangements.
