Description

Leaving Cert students sitting the English exam could soon face oral tests at the end of fifth year where they will be quizzed on plays or books they have studied. The plans have been set out in a document produced by the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment. We get reaction to this proposal with Conor Murphy English teacher in Skibbereen Community School.
