Circular 0074/2016 sets out the arrangements for panel access for fixed-term/temporary and part-time teachers to the Supplementary Redeployment Panel for the 2017/18 school year.
The base school for panel purposes is the school within that panel area where the majority of teaching service was given in the 2016 calendar year or the school in which the applicant is contracted to teach on or before 9 December 2016 to the end of the 2016/17 school year.
Teaching vacancies are filled in the first instance by permanent/CID holding teachers on main redeployment panels and thereafter by teachers on the supplementary redeployment panels.
The eligibility or otherwise of applicants for the 2017/18 Supplementary Panel has not yet been confirmed. However, I can confirm that the reckonable service for the teacher mentioned by the Deputy is in a school within the Limerick Diocesan panel area.
Any transfer from one panel to another can only be done by agreement of both Patrons. My Department has no role in this process.
