Charlie McConalogue

Ceist:

235. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he will list the various reasonable accommodation options for students with special educational needs sitting the State examinations; if he will clarify which of the accommodations carry the asterisk reference on the leaving certificate and which may be provided to students without having an asterisk reference on the certificate; if he will clarify if there is such an accommodation as additional writing time for certain students with special needs as distinct from additional rest time; if he will further clarify the specific nature of the educational difficulties that would qualify for this additional time in the State leaving certificate examination; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
