A primary school teacher will normally undertake the Droichead process when employed as a mainstream class teacher in a recognised primary school.. As a general rule, paid employment in a permanent, temporary or substitute capacity is eligible, where the teacher is teaching all 11 subjects of the Primary School Curriculum, including Irish, to a mainstream class of pupils (single or multi-grade) for the entire school day. Other than in exceptional circumstances, schools should deploy NQTs in a mainstream setting. In certain circumstances, where the NQT is the most appropriate teacher to support the needs of pupils, they may complete the Droichead process in one of the following roles: a) special class teacher in a mainstream school b) teacher in a special school c) full-time resource teacher of pupils with low-incidence disabilities (as defined by the DES) d) full-time learning support teacher e) a role which combines both d) and e) above (LS/RT post). In the above cases, the period of employment must involve teaching the same cohort of pupils (save for exceptional absences). As part of the Droichead process, the school should also endeavour to ensure that there are opportunities for the newly qualified teacher to teach in a mainstream setting, which would include the teaching and learning of Gaeilge in a mainstream class, in collaboration with the class teacher.

Dé ghnáth, déanfaidh múinteoir bunscoile an próiseas Droichead agus é/í fostaithe mar mhúinteoir ranga príomhshrutha. Mar riail ghinearálta, tá fostaíocht ar phá i gcáil bhuan, shealadach nó mar ionadaí incháilithe, más rud é go bhfuil an múinteoir ag teagasc na 11 ábhar go léir de Churaclam na Bunscoile, Gaeilge san áireamh, chuig rang príomhshrutha de dhaltaí (grád amháin nó ilghrád) don lá scoile iomlán. Seachas i gcúinsí eisceachtúla, ba chóir do scoileanna MNCanna a úsáid i suíomh príomhshrutha. I gcúinsí áirithe, sa chás inarb é/í an MNC an múinteoir is oiriúnaí chun tacú le riachtanais na ndaltaí, féadfaidh siad an próiseas Droichead a dhéanamh i gceann de na róil seo a leanas: a) múinteoir ranga speisialta i scoil phríomhshrutha b) múinteoir i scoil speisialta c) múinteoir acmhainne lánaimseartha do dhaltaí faoi mhíchumais íosmhinicíochta (mar atá sainithe ag ROS) d) múinteoir tacaíochta foghlama lánaimseartha e) ról a mheascann c) agus d) thuas (post LR/RT). Sna cásanna thuas, ní mór don tréimhse fostaíochta teagasc ar an gcohórt céanna de dhaltaí (ach amháin do chúinsí eisceachtúla). Mar chuid den phróiseas Droichead, ba chóir don scoil iarracht a dhéanamh go bhfuil deiseanna ann don mhúinteoir nuacháilithe teagasc i suíomh príomhshrutha, a áireodh teagasc agus foghlaim na Gaeilge i rang príomhshrutha, i gcomhar leis an múinteoir ranga.
