Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 9 November 2011
93 Deputy Ciara Conway asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he will supply an official definition as to the qualifications that are required for a literacy and numeracy teacher as same is being queried by a person (details supplied); if he will clarify the requirements; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [33689/11]
View answerThe recognition of teacher qualifications in this State is a matter for the Teaching Council, the body with statutory responsibility for establishing and maintaining standards in the teaching profession. While it would not be appropriate for me to intervene in individual cases, I have forwarded the Deputy's correspondence on to the Teaching Council for a direct reply.
