Ceisteanna (157)

Willie O'Dea

Ceist:

157. Deputy Willie O'Dea asked the Minister for Education if she will consider that a student who experiences a medical emergency such as a seizure immediately before or during their leaving certificate exam and is unable to complete their exam should be given the opportunity to resit the exam within the same exam cycle or before such time that a CAO offers issue similar to the provision that has been introduced in recent years for students who experience a bereavement during their exams; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations.

In view of this I have forwarded your query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply to you.
