View answerThe criteria used for the allocation of teachers in primary schools is published annually on my Department's website. In terms of the provision at individual school level the key factor for determining the level of resources provided by my Department is the pupil enrolment at the 30 September of each year. It is open to the school to apply for developing school status as set out in the Department's Circular 19/2011 and it will be considered in the normal manner.
