TUI update in relation to State Examinations

By piofficer, Friday, 5th February 2021 | 0 comments

 The Teachers’ Union of Ireland (TUI) has accepted an invitation from the Minister for Education to intensive talks, commencing with bilateral talks, with regard to the Leaving Certificate and related issues.  

We are keenly aware of the need for clarity in relation to State Examinations this year and the anxiety currently being experienced by all in school communities as a result of the ongoing challenges presented by the national health emergency.  

In the intensive talks, the TUI will participate constructively in what we will insist will be meaningful engagement that recognises the professional views and legitimate concerns of our members, including a fundamental concern to protect the standards and reputation of national awards to students.  

TUI will not comment further during this period of engagement.
