Teachers in primary, voluntary secondary and community/comprehensive schools are employed by the Management Authorities of the schools. They are paid on payrolls operated by my Department on behalf of the Management Authorities. In the final payroll of 2011 4.2% of the total number of substitute teachers paid were retired teachers.
