The school referred to by the Deputy, has lodged an appeal to the Primary Staffing Appeals Board for a review of its allocation for language support for the 2011/12 school year (Circular 15/2009).

The appeal will be considered by the Board at its next meeting which is scheduled for the end of June 2011. The school will be notified of the outcome within a few days thereafter. The Appeals Board operates independently of the Department and its decision is final.
