As the Deputy will be aware, the National Council for Special Education (NCSE) is an independent agency with responsibility for determining the appropriate staffing levels in relation to the support of pupils with special educational needs in mainstream and special schools. The NCSE operates within my Department's policy in allocating this support. As the Deputy Principal at the school referred to by the Deputy has retired, the school may wish to appoint an acting Deputy Principal from their existing staffing component in the interim until a selection process has been carried out and a Deputy Principal is appointed. The school should refer to Circular 07/03 for information on post of responsibilities.
