The teacher referred to by the Deputy is a post-primary qualified teacher who was placed on the Special National Subsidiary Redeployment Panel under the terms of Circular 0012/2012. The arrangements for the subsidiary special national panel allow for the inclusion of eligible post primary trained teachers on the panel to be appointed to certain posts, i.e., in special schools where a proportion of the pupils are of post-primary age and where second level programmes are being provided by the school. The teacher referred to is not qualified to teach in a mainstream primary school and has therefore been reinstated to the subsidiary special national panel. She retains the right to be offered vacancies for which she is eligible, in special national schools.
