He says schools may be forced to drop subjects or drop unqualified teachers into classes to fill in the gaps.

He told Dublin Live: "There’s a danger that some schools might have to drop some subjects, optional subjects. The other problem is that if a school can’t get a qualified Irish teacher for example, they will be using teachers that aren’t qualified in Irish.
