The Scheme for the award of incremental credit to recognised teachers in Second Level Schools was agreed under the auspices of the Teachers' Conciliation Council, a body established in accordance with the terms of the Conciliation and Arbitration Scheme for Teachers. The Scheme is currently set out in consolidated format in Department Circular 29/2007. Any individual application for the award of incremental credit will be considered under the terms of the aforementioned Circular. If the Deputy wishes to provide further specific detail in this case my Department will be pleased to examine the individual case further.
