19th June 2013 | News


 The DES has this evening (19 June) released the update below regarding the
panels. The next update is expected on Friday 28th June 2013

Update on Teacher Allocations and Redeployment Panels at primary level for 2013/14 school year – Position @ 19 June 2013

Teacher Allocations and redeployment of surplus permanent/CID holding teachers

The redeployment of all surplus teachers is key to the ability of the Department to manage within its payroll budget and ceiling on teacher numbers.

At this stage 96% of all surplus permanent/CID holding teachers have now been redeployed.
 
There are currently a total of 15 surplus permanent/CID holding teachers remaining on panels for redeployment to vacancies in other schools. Click here for the latest summary list for each of the individual redeployment panels.  The next update will be published on the Department website on Friday 28 June, 2013.

Progression to next stage of recruitment

Progression to the next stage of the recruitment process is dependent on the surplus permanent teachers from all the main panels (including those without access to a
panel) in the relevant geographical areas being redeployed.

The supplementary panel is now in operation for all panel operators in all areas with
the exception of schools of of all patronage that are within 45kms of Ballyshannon and Letterkenny, all schools located within the geographical areas of the Elphin and Tuam Dioceses andthose individual schools that have been separately notified by the
Department and/or Panel Officers in relation to the redeployment of
remaining surplus permanent/CID holding teachers. 

     

Please also note that (with the exception of the schools in the
geographical areas outlined above and the schools that have been
separately notified by the Department and/or Panel Officers in relation
to the redeployment of remaining surplus permanent/CID holding teachers)
all other schools that have complied with the redeployment arrangements and have notified all their vacancies to their relevant panel operators
may now also proceed to fill their fixed term posts in the normal
manner.

Please also note that (with the exception of the schools in the
geographical areas outlined above and the schools that have been
separately notified by the Department and/or Panel Officers in relation
to the redeployment of remaining surplus permanent/CID holding teachers)
all other schools that do not have access to a panel may also proceed
to fill their permanent and fixed term posts in the normal manner provided they have already notified their vacancies to the Department in
accordance with the arrangements in Circular 0013/2013.

The schools that have been separately notified by the Department and/or Panel Officers are reminded that they are not permitted to commence a recruitment process to fill a permanent or fixed term teaching vacancy in any manner other than through the main redeployment panels until the Department is satisfied that vacant positions are not required for the redeployment of any remaining permanent /CID holding teachers on a main panel. The timing of when such teaching vacancies in those schools can be filled in any other manner will depend on how quickly permanent/CID holding teachers are redeployed into vacancies. 

The Department will continue to liaise with panel operators in relation to progress on the redeployment of the remaining surplus permanent/CID holding teachers and those teachers that are on the supplementary panels. Schools should keep in contact with the panel operators for an update on these arrangements and progression to the next stage of recruitment.

It is also important to note that as and when schools that are allowed by the Department to proceed to fill permanent and fixed-term posts other than by the redeployment of surplus permanent/CID holding teachers those schools (irrespective of location and patronage) that were given provisional approval for filling or retaining a teaching post(s) on the basis of projected enrolments in September 2013 are required to keep open one vacancy in accordance with the arrangements set out in the letter of approval and the additional FAQs document that issued to those schools for such posts.
