Heather Humphreys
Question:57. Deputy Heather Humphreys asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he will instruct the State Examinations Commission to ensure that in future the leaving certificate rechecks are completed before the new academic year commences in view of the difficulties and distress caused to students who receive their correct results in mid-October, some six weeks into the academic year, when many students have already started a course that was not their preferred choice, and when they may no longer be able to transfer due to the fact that their first-choice course is now full; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
