School principals target Hanafin over workloads

SCHOOL principals are claiming their workload had not been reduced, despite promises by Education Minister Mary Hanafin three years ago.

She had made the commitment, in one of her first functions as minister, at the National Association of Principals and Deputy Principals.

However, as the organisation for second-level school heads meets again today, its director, Mary McGlynn, said that the situation has probably worsened rather than improved.
