Vol. 465 No. 8

Written Answers. - Selection of Examiners.

John Ellis

Ceist:

70 Mr. Ellis asked the Minister for Education the method used for the selection of people to correct technical projects such as woodwork projects for the junior and leaving certificate examinations. [10646/96]

Each October applications for the post of assistant examiner are sought by my Department through advertising in the newspapers. The applications in each subject area are reviewed with a view to selecting the panel of assistant examiners which is considered most suitable for the subject area in question. In the selection process account is taken of the qualifications and teaching experience of the applicants and of the requirement that the marking of examination work is to be completed with maximum accuracy and efficiency.
