Teachers And Students Will Really Enjoy This Leaving Cert Marking Video

The news is now confirmed. The Leaving Cert has been postponed and students will be able to avail of a ‘calculated grade’ based on "the combination of school information about a student’s expected performance in an examination and national data available in relation to the performance of students in examinations over a period of time."

While, this process has been described by the government as "A professional judgement of each student’s attainment which will be subjected to a rigorous in-school alignment process to ensure fairness," and will require the school principal to approve the estimated scores and ranking of each student, we think that comedian Stevie Cahill's approach might be funnier.

All jokes aside, the full details of the situation for Leaving Cert students include the establishment of a special unit in the Department of Education to process all the data from each school to "national standardisation." The Department are also at pains to point out that the grade will be not decided by the the teacher alone:

Students will also have the option to appeal results and to sit the Leaving Cert exam at a later date. The full details of how the system will work are detailed on the Education.ie website here.
