Objectives:

Circular 0003/18 sets out a leadership and management framework for posts in recognised post-primary schools in line with best practice as set out in ‘LAOS 2016 – A Quality Framework for Post-Primary Schools’. It provides detail on the revised processes relating to the appointment of Assistant Principal and Programme Coordinator Posts (API & APII), including reference to posts in Self-Financing Adult Education Programmes.

This In-Service will cover both the consultation and appointment process to a post of responsibility in a school in 2021/2022.
