Rates of pay are linked to registration with the Teaching Council for the sector where a teacher is undertaking the work.
As the teacher is not registered with the Teaching Council as a primary school teacher and it is a primary school where the work is being undertaken, a lower rate of payment is applied.
The teacher referred to by the Deputy is being correctly paid in accordance with Departmental regulations.
