Last updated: Wed, Sep 21st, 2016 8:35:19 am

30.1          In relation to adult education courses, the Board must put in place appropriate procedures and controls to ensure that such courses are operated to the extent that the activity is self-financing. Where pay costs (e.g. tuition, caretaker) are met from the School Fund initially, care should be taken to reimburse the pay heading of the Fund from the adult education Account.

30.2          The adult education programme must be accounted for separately from the School Fund.  A Statement of Receipts and Payments must be included in the Financial Report. Separate bank accounts must be used for the adult education programme.

The Board may employ tutors for their self financing evening classes at the rates set out in the Self-Financing Adult Education Classes Circular 57/2014

30.3           Adult Education Programmes which are under the auspices of the Board of Management are covered by the State indemnity. See Section 25 for information on State Indemnity.
