The Leaving Cert is currently postponed due to COVID-19
Leaving Cert students have been told to aim for a start date of Wednesday, July 29th.
The exams have been pushed back from its usual date of early June due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Education Minister Joe McHugh says he hopes to confirm the date in the next couple of weeks but gave students and indication while answering their concerns.
SpunOut.ie organised a live Q&A with the Minister, as they aimed to seek clarity for exam students.
When asked about other proposals, he said they were considered but there were concerns:
"This is not wanting to make it happen to put burden on young people.
"We looked at the predicted grading; we don't feel it's fair, we think there's too much inherent bias."
