Minister for Education

To date in 2023, I have met the CEO of the State Examinations Commission (SEC), including other SEC senior staff, on two occasions.

It may be useful for the Deputy to be aware that the Department also has ongoing contact at official level with the SEC CEO and SEC officials in relation to issues such as finance, governance and curricular reform as well as the operation of the State examinations themselves.
