The Teachers’ Union of Ireland (TUI) continues to engage with the Department of Education to achieve workable arrangements in relation to this year’s Leaving Certificate.
We are keenly aware of the need for clarity as a matter of urgency in relation to all assessment elements of the Leaving Certificate programmes, including the written examinations and the additional components of assessment.
We are committed to allaying the anxiety currently being felt by students, their families and teachers.
Resolution of key issues is critical for students, teachers and the integrity of the process.
The TUI believes that engagement in these intensive negotiations is the best means of ensuring that the views of teachers are central to this process and its outcomes.
