The salary scale applying to the post of Director of the Teaching Council is Principal Officer (Higher) (PPC) (€87,741-€107,410).
However, the current Director is a serving civil servant on secondment to the Teaching Council from a government department, where he holds the grade of Director (Civil Service). In accordance with the secondment arrangement, the Director retains the salary due to him in his substantive grade of Director (Civil Service) (PPC) (€99,845-€119,514). This is paid to him by his parent department, which recoups from the Teaching Council the amount of his salary equivalent to the post of Director of the Council.
