I understand that the person to whom the Deputy refers, applied to the Teaching Council in August 2009 to have her qualifications assessed.

My Department received notification from the Teaching Council in October 2009 that the qualifications had been recognised. The teacher is now recognised in a qualified capacity and salary arrears back dated to 1st September 2009 will issue to her on the 26th November.
