Ceisteanna—Questions. Written Answers. - Early Start Pre-Schools.
The early start pre-schools which have recently been established are an integral part of the primary schools to which they are attached.
Each pre-school is staffed by two fully qualified primary teachers and two qualified childcare assistants.
It is not intended that montessori trained teachers be appointed to the pre-schools.
