UPDATE Re Developing Schools
Information update provided by DES:
It has been acknowledged that some additional provision would be required to be made for schools which are developing schools, or very rapidly expanding schools where the net enrolments increase greatly for the coming September.
Please see the attached criteria which will apply for qualification for additional special education teaching allocations for developing or expanding schools. The qualification criteria coincide with the existing criteria by which schools qualify for additional mainstream developing school posts, as set out in DES Circular 17/2017 (Primary School Staffing Schedule).
Qualifying schools will be notified of their provisional allocations, on the basis of the criteria set out in this note, in the coming days.
