PQ 630
630. Deputy Michael Murphy asked the Minister for Education and Youth whether she is satisfied that current Leaving Certificate subject-access arrangements provide students with dyslexia and other additional educational needs with an equitable opportunity to maximise their CAO points; whether she has considered circumstances in which a student with an Irish exemption who also experiences significant difficulty with English may effectively have fewer viable examination subjects available to them than their peers; and whether she will review the relevant guidance to ensure appropriate flexibility is available to schools.
