Vol. 453 No. 5
85 Mr. L. Fitzgerald asked the Minister for Education if she has received a submission from a school (details supplied) in Dublin 17 highlighting the need for a remedial maths teacher; if she will agree that the submission warrants such an appointment; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [9621/95]
I have received a submission for a remedial maths teacher from the school referred to by the Deputy. As I recently announced, I intend to allocate an additional 55 remedial teacher posts to the primary school sector in 1995. These posts will be allocated on the basis of priority of need following the collection and analysis of data from primary schools by my Department's primary inspectorate. The needs of all schools, including the school referred to by the Deputy, will be considered in the context of this allocation.
