FE TEACHER PROBLEMS

Im a qualified FE teacher, I have an undergrad (BA hons) arts degree and I have postgrad Hdip level 9 from Marino Institute in Adult and Further education. I completed 100 hours teaching practice while on the course and previous to starting the course I had acquired 8 years on and off volunteer/unpaid teaching experience. One of the schools where I had done years of unpaid/volunteer teaching and also completed 40 hours of my teaching placement work experience had a job opening recently in my subject. I was working unpaid in the school at the time the job came up. Ive two issues 1. No member of staff informed me there was a job opening within the school in my subject. 2. They hired someone with an undergrad but no teaching qualifications at all, he hadnt even worked as a teacher in 5 years. I'm fuming. Its hard enough for teachers to find employment without being undermined by schools. Also if id known I didnt need any teaching qualifications to teach adults/further ed id not have bothered doing the HDip. Is this the norm? and are there any plans to regulate further ed teachers and qualifications? As it stands trained further ed teachers cant work in secondary schools limiting job options and available fe jobs are given to unqualified teachers.
