The Teachers' Union of Ireland has called for further engagement and clarifications on the Government's hybrid exams and calculated grades Leaving Certificate plan which was announced yesterday.
While the scheme has been largely welcomed by students, school managers, and school principals, both the TUI and the ASTI teacher unions have expressed what they say are serious concerns and disappointment at elements of the plan.
They say they will consult with members over the coming days. The Cabinet Sub-Committee signed off on the exam proposal yesterday afternoon.
Students will be able to choose to receive calculated grades in all subjects, to be issued to them at the same time as the examination results.
