The Teachers’ Union of Ireland (TUI) today called for the Minister for Education to send written confirmation to schools that adjustments to Leaving Certificate and Junior Cycle assessments in line with those implemented in the years since disruption caused by COVID-19 restrictions (i.e. incorporating additional choice in the examinations) will be made for the 2025 examinations.
TUI General Secretary Michael Gillespie said it is critical that schools receive official confirmation of these adjustments as early as possible as it clearly has a huge impact on teaching and learning.
This will provide welcome and much-needed certainty to schools.
