Written Answers. - County Wicklow Pupil-Teacher Ratio.
483.
The information requested by the Deputy in respect of primary schools is set out in the form of a tabular statement.
In the case of vocational schools teachers are appointed for the vocational committees concerned and are not specifically assigned to individual schools.
In the case of secondary schools the total staff employed is a matter for the individual school manager, the Department's concern being with the number of teachers who are paid incremental salary. It would not, accordingly, be in accordance with normal practice to furnish details in regard to individual schools.
