The Rules for National Schools were published in 1965 and over the course of the intervening period they have been updated, amended and supplemented mainly by circular letters but also by certain provisions of both primary and secondary legislation that have since been enacted. Given the many other more pressing work priorities and also the on-going changes in the primary education sector, my Department has no plans at present to prepare a consolidated version of the Rules to reflect the aforementioned changes.
