Primary and Post-Primary Schools with significant level of vacancies allowed to fill promotion posts
General moratorium on filling promotion posts in schools must continue
The Tánaiste and Minister for Education and Skills, Mary Coughlan TD, announced today that she had agreed with the Minister for Finance arrangements for a limited derogation from the general moratorium on the filling of promotion posts in schools.
'The impact of the moratorium is uneven across schools.
'For some schools, between this year and the coming school year, the level of retirements will create a significant number of vacancies.
'The changes that I am now making will allow those schools to fill a limited number of vacancies while the overall number of promotion positions continues to reduce,' said the Tánaiste.
