    What is the legal requirement for adult numbers at a school? e..g if you have a National school of 10 pupils is one adult permanently onsite (Principal) all that's required from a legal point of view? Can anyone point me to relevant government guidelines on the issue?

    Yes, you can have a one teacher school,though they are getting rarer.

    It always amused me that preschool was so tightly relegated , so many adults per child etc. Yet at primary you can have 33 children to one adult !!
