A Handbook for VECs and Boards of Management of Schools and Community Colleges
This handbook is intended to be of assistance to those involved in Vocational Education Committees and boards of management of VEC schools and community colleges. While under the relevant educational legislation a VEC is the body corporate for all schools and colleges established and maintained under its patronage, it delegates many appropriate responsibilities and functions to the local board of a school or college. Therefore there is a need to understand the respective responsibilities and functions at various levels in the sector (2006).

Guidelines for conducting Equality Impact Assessments on IVEA and VEC plans, policies and programmes
These guidelines have been developed as a joint venture between the IVEA and the Equality Authority. They provide a foundation from which to implement equality impact assessments of plans, policies and programmes, a foundation that can be built on and developed further over time as capacity in this area grows. The focus for these guidelines is on the plans, policies and programmes that govern the business of the sector and its institutions rather than the internal operational procedures and practices of individual institutions.

Principal's Legal Handbook
IVEA is pleased to introduce readers to the Principal’s Legal Handbook, an important and timely guide for all those navigating the waters of an Irish education system.
During the last five years a comprehensive revision of education law has presented many new challenges for principals, teachers and all those working in the Irish education sector. IVEA was heavily involved in the consultation process preceding this legislation and the implementation process that followed. We felt that a straightforward guide decoding the complexities of recent legislation would be great benefit to principals and all those involved in the education sector.
The cost of this publication is €18 & €2 post and packaging.
