The pupil teacher ratio, PTR, is calculated by dividing the enrolment of a primary school on 30 September of a given school year by the total number of full-time teaching posts based in the school. The most recent data on pupil teacher ratios available to my Department refers to the 2004-05 school year. For the 2004-05 school year the PTR of the 35 schools referred to by the Deputy were as follows:

The Deputy should note that teachers shared between schools are counted for PTR purposes in the schools in which they are based, and are not reckoned when calculating the PTR of schools which share the post with the base school.
