Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 March 2013
202. Deputy John McGuinness asked the Minister for Education and Skills the reason the behaviour for learning programme teacher has been withdrawn for 2013/14 in respect of a school (details supplied) in County Kilkenny; and if he will expedite the appeal submitted and issue a positive response. [11258/13]
View answerThe National Behaviour Support Service (NBSS) promotes and supports positive behaviour through the provision of a systematic continuum of support to school communities. The service assists partner post primary schools in addressing behavioural concerns in schools. I understand that the NBSS will be in direct contact with the school referred to by the Deputy in the context of the proposed withdrawal of the Behaviour for Learning Programme Teacher post and the school's appeal in this regard.
