The Teacher Fee Refund Scheme 2011 has yet to be finalised as there are a small number of applicants to the scheme whose eligibility may be affected by the review of allowances being undertaken by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. The proportion of fees refunded depends on the number of qualifying applicants in any given year. The funding available is allocated on a pro-rata basis so that all successful applicants each receive the same proportion of their eligible fees. Based on this, it is not yet possible to calculate the amount of the refund due to each applicant. Refunds will be made as soon as possible and all applicants will be informed as soon as a decision on refunds are made.
