122. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the reason ETB small second-level schools are not entitled to be designated as a small school for the purposes of the small schools' designation that gives extra teaching resources to small second-level schools despite the fact that some of the smallest second-level schools in the country including all island secondary schools are under the patronage of the ETB.

The criteria used for the allocation of teachers to schools is published annually on my Department's website (circular 0007/2021).

The Department provides a staffing allocation to each ETB and the distribution of this staffing allocation including Small School posts is a matter for the Chief Executive of the ETB scheme.
