Michael Noonan
Ceist:345 Mr. Noonan asked the Minister for Education and Science if her attention has been drawn to the fact that a post primary school (details supplied) in County Limerick, even though it is significantly over staff quota, cannot match subject demand to teacher qualifications and that while it has four woodwork teachers, it has no French teacher, and has a shortage of teachers in maths, English and religion; if her attention has further been drawn to the fact that the school has received no curricular concessions from her Department for 2004-05, that it has a very high proportion of pupils with special needs and that despite 190 special needs hours having been allocated to the school, 156 of these have been used to fill gaps in the timetable; if, in consultation with the board of management and the principal of the school, a special programme will be set up to meet the variety of needs; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
