Tomás MacGiolla

Question:

152 Tomás Mac Giolla asked the Minister for Education if she will assure parents, teachers and candidates for next year's junior certificate examinations that the results will be published well in advance of the re-opening of schools so as to allow the results assist all concerned in choosing subjects for the following year.

Minister for Education (Mrs. O'Rourke)

The results of the intermediate certificate examination have been issued progressively earlier each year over the last five years. The results of the junior certificate examination will be issued at the earliest possible date.
