asked the Minister for Education the number of remedial teachers appointed ex-quota in the current school year as a result of his recent initiative in this area.
With the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, I propose to take Questions Nos. 57 and 58 together.
The number of applications received for appointment of remedial teachers under the terms of Circular Letter No. 33/79 in second-level schools was as follows: Secondary Schools, 155; Vocational Education Committees, 36; Comprehensive and Community schools, 16.
The number of teachers appointed in the case of each category of school was as follows: Secondary Schools, 36; Vocational Schools, 58; Comprehensive and Community schools, 9.
It would not be in accordance with normal procedure to give the names of the individual schools.
