There are standard redeployment arrangements in operation to deal with the redeployment of any surplus permanent and CID holding teachers. The redeployment of all surplus permanent and CID holding teachers is key to the Department's ability to manage within its payroll budget and ceiling on teacher numbers. The arrangements at primary level for panel access for fixed term (temporary/substitute) and part-time teachers for the 2014/15 school year are set out in Department Circular 0057/2013 which is available on the Department website. The supplementary panel set up in accordance with the arrangements set out in this circular will be used for appointments to full-time permanent posts in primary schools but only where those posts are not otherwise required to facilitate the redeployment of surplus permanent and CID holding teachers.
Where a resource teacher who is employed on a fixed term basis has their employment terminated in a redundancy situation as defined by the Redundancy Payments Acts, then they would be entitled to a redundancy payment.
