Primary principal admin days
Jackie Cahill asked for extra administrative days for working principals in primary schools because of workload and retirements. The Taoiseach said he would inform the Education Minister.
Working principals in primary schools lobbied extensively prior to the budget with regard to getting extra administrative days. They have a huge workload and a number of retirements have taken place in my county due to the workload. I request that the new Minister look at this to see whether these working principals can get extra administrative days to deal with their increased workload.
