Junior Cycle and Leaving Cert Student Information Video
The State Exams Commission has produced a video for Leaving Cert and Junior Cycle students.
As you are aware, they have moved to online marking of candidates’ examination answers on a phased basis over the last number of years.
They have prepared a short video which sets out some very important information for candidates in relation to the completion of their examinations and requires our assistance in ensuring that the video is brought to the attention of candidates. The video contains key messages for candidates including:
how they should provide key information on the front cover of their answer books that is essential to ensure their scripts are processed accurately and effectively;
and the correct writing instruments that they should use in the examinations to ensure examiners can read their complete scripts.
This video can be found under the heading “Information for Candidates” at https://www.examinations.ie/?l=en&mc=ex&sc=e23
