WQ.253/2018
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR EDUCATION BY DEPUTY G.P. SOUTHERN OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 20th NOVEMBER 2018
Question
Will the Minister –
- inform members how many teaching vacancies were unfilled by schools in September in each of the past 5 years, stating in which schools and in which subject or year-group specialism the vacancies occurred; and
- state how many supply teachers were used to fill any such vacancies at the start of each academic year?
Answer
- Further to answer to WQ.237/2018 we do not have a historical record of data to answer this but the figures for September 2018 are:
School | Subject / Year Group |
d'Auvergne | Year 6 |
Haute Vallée | English |
Le Rocquier | Music |
Plat Douet | Deputy Head |
Rouge Bouillon | Teacher with Managerial responsibilities |
St Mary | Year 4 |
Springfield | Head Teacher |
The Head Teacher for Plat Douet was appointed later in the summer which delayed the appointment to the Deputy Head role. This has now been filled.
The Head Teacher of Springfield has also now been filled.
- Further to answer to WQ.206/2018 the provision of cover for absences, including vacancy absence, is not consistently recorded across all schools in a format that could provide an answer.
