Written Answers. - County Monaghan Schools.

William Cotter

Ceist:

97 Mr. Cotter asked the Minister for Education if he will sanction the appointment of a remedial teacher to serve the Deravoy, Knockconon and Clara national schools in County Monaghan from September 1992; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As the Deputy will be aware, 80 additional remedial posts serving over 240 schools were allocated in the current school year as part of a national distribution under the Programme for Economic and Social Progress.

These appointments were made following the collection of data and information by my Department's primary inspectorate from schools. The posts were then allocated on the basis of priority of need, as indicated by the information collected by the inspectorate.

The needs of other schools, including the schools mentioned by the Deputy, will be kept under review.
