Question:164 Mr. Gregory asked the Minister for Education and Science the different criteria used at junior and leaving certificate examinations when assessing a student for special consideration arising from a learning disability, for example, dyslexia; the reason the same criteria are not used for both exams; the reason it is left to an individual examiner at leaving certificate level to assess whether a student has a learning disability; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
