The Implementation Body published its second review of the Public Service (Croke Park) Agreement on 13 June 2012 which reviewed progress made and savings achieved during the second year of the Agreement. A copy of this review is available on the Implementation Body website www.implementationbody.gov.ie. The first review of the Public Service Agreement was published in June 2011 and is also available on the Implementation Body website. These 2 reviews contain details of the tangible results that have been delivered in both schools and the wider Education sector under the Public Service Agreement.

A revised Action Plan for 2013 for implementation of the Public Service Agreement in the Education Sector has been signed off by the Implementation Body in December 2012 and is available on my Department's website www.education.ie. This contains specific details of the further measures to be implemented in the Education sector and also specific timeframes for the delivery of those measures.
