    I actually took that as bad news! In that the school has to be 2 A posts below the previous number that was already a cut in posts before 1 appointment can be made.

    The number of A posts in schools is determined by last years circular :"The limited alleviation is focused on those schools that are acutely affected at
    Assistant Principal level by the impact of the moratorium."

    Now you have to be 2 below this level to appoint someone - so a reduction of 1 on this "limited alleviation".

    I'd say the pressure is on from the management side since the unions have told teachers to accept posts but not to do the work involved until payment is forthcoming. I don't think it's a sign of anything much to be honest. Sorry!

    We I think it's good but I have a vested interest. I think it could be a good sign that the qualification allowance could be reinstated.

    The negativity here is unreal. Surely if you are down two posts one is better than none.

    We all know how dire it is but at least in schools where there is savage pressure there will be some relief.

    The review is due to be completed shortly too I believe.

    Are you next on the list? :P

    It's hardly being negative to see a reduction as a loss rather than a gain.

    I hope the review comes out soon and takes away the uncertainty. The trouble is that back pay will be needed for the allowances that are restored. I wonder will they leave it till the budget?
