§ MR. CREAN (Cork, S.E.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether, if an assistant teacher give instruction in Irish during the year, his or her name must necessarily be returned at the end of the year, i.e., at the annual examination, as having taught such subject; and whether the Commissioners will insist on the name of every teacher who gives instruction in any extra subject in a national school being returned on the yearly returns as having taught such subjects during the year.
(Answered by Mr. Wyndham.) I am informed that the name of every teacher who gives instruction in a national school must be submitted to the Commissioners for approval, and should appear on the yearly returns from each school. There is a special form of report for extra subjects showing the name of the person or persons giving the instruction, and of the pupils receiving instruction.
