She was responding to a Tynwald question
The education minister says her department is aware of the concerns raised about headteachers being in charge of more than one school but is confident it's the right decision.
Julie Edge was responding to a Tynwald question from Douglas North MHK, David Ashford.
She said Adrian Shorthouse - who is now in charge of Kewaigue and Scoill yn Jubilee and Max Kelly, who's the head of Dhoon, Laxey and Willaston - were qualified and experienced.
She also shut down speculation that their appointments were made as a cost saving measure:
Creamery working to solve the mystery of tight screw caps on cartons
Young people's bereavement drop in service coming to an end
Pub's inclusive toilet signs vandalised
£100K cash injection for energy efficiency scheme
