489. Deputy Michael Lowry asked the Minister for Education and Skills to ensure that a person (details supplied) in County Tipperary will have a waiver for spelling, grammar and punctuation in language subjects granted in time for the leaving certificate applied examinations. [5129/16]
View answerThe State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations.
The State Examinations Commission operates a scheme of Reasonable Accommodations in the Certificate Examinations. Full details of the scheme are available from their website: www.examinations.ie/candidates/reasonableaccommodations.
In view of this I have forwarded the Deputy's query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply.
