Yes, in accordance with Department circulars an applicant for the post of Principal in a school must be fully registered for the sector with the Teaching Council to meet the eligibility criteria for the post.
In accordance with Department recruitment circulars, which are available on the Department’s website under www.gov.ie/education, schools are required to employ appropriately qualified teachers.
