Question 149: To ask the Minister for Education and Skills if he will consider looking at equity for job opportunities that may arise in post-primary schools for those who have been in substitution positions for a number of years by introducing a similar panel system as is in place for primary schools.

I have no plans to introduce a panel system at post-primary level nor do I think it would be appropriate to do so.
There are fundamental differences in the operation of the staffing arrangements between primary and post-primary levels. The range of individual subjects is a significant additional complicating factor at post- primary level.
