Guys I have a question,my friend is from a private school, and he’s been constantly getting great grades in bio,mostly 95+, he’s bright.He’s worried he’ll get downgraded, even to a h3.The new predicted grades system should avoid these sort of stuff happening,no?. #leavingcert2021

[Jason O'Reilly @JasonOReilly422]

@issu4u pls read this article. Something that needs be to brought up with Norma is the ridiculous drop in H1s that students from fee-paying schools got. It is not fair to those who have worked tirelessly towards a h1 only for them to go down to a h2/h3

More changes need to be made to the comhra part of the Irish orals. Other languages like French had changes to their conversation part

@AodhanORiordain @Education_Ire @AodhanORiordain would you have a link to this guide?

[Caillum Hedderman @CaillumH]

Thanks to everyone for all the support over the past few weeks, I hope I helped by providing the facts and some balanced insights from my perspective. I hope you have a safe return to school next week and get what you hope for from #LeavingCert2021 - take care!

I have had an interesting few weeks, in terms of advocacy on #LeavingCert2021

One aspect of it was engaging with politicians and another with the media.

I’ve been asked about it a lot, so here’s a thread of how I engaged on the issue ⬇️

It seems like nothing has been learned from last year. Another meeting needs to be held regarding this. Students from gaeilscoils and private schools are going to get hit hard. And what does "in school alignments" means. Another term for CLASS RANKING?!? @GaryGannonTD

@CaillumH @Education_Ire Quite pathetic that JC results are being considered

[Jason O'Reilly @JasonOReilly422]

@IsobelMKeane @SherryDaire @AodhanORiordain @labour @issu4u a subject called Science in the JC. And there are students who picked up many subjects too.

[Jason O'Reilly @JasonOReilly422]

@IsobelMKeane @SherryDaire @AodhanORiordain @labour @issu4u But how is that fair though. Going back that far and using them grades, we are talking about two different state exams which both differ in terms of syllabus length and importance. How can they use them to give a prediction for subjects like Physics, which was only a part of..

[Jason O'Reilly @JasonOReilly422]

@issu4u Using our JC results? How is that even fair? Both are drastically different in terms of syllabus and importance.

[Jason O'Reilly @JasonOReilly422]

Continuous assessment till May 14th would greatly help those who want to do predicted grades,they can work towards a better predicted grade now knowing they have the option,but I get those who want to do sit the exams would want to avoid such assessments.Asse. should be optional

[Jason O'Reilly @JasonOReilly422]

@IsobelMKeane The last point you made about continuous assessments until May, I think that’s fair for those who want to predicted grades, as it gives them a better opportunity to improve on their grades

🚨The ISSU President @ISSU_President will be live on instagram tonight with @Studyclix answering all of your questions.
Be sure to tune in tonight @ 7pm!

I don’t understand why ppl are saying we are getting more time for English and Irish, the timings have been same for the past two years

[Jason O'Reilly @JasonOReilly422]

@seanplunkett17 I never felt sorry for these guys they never wanted the option of predicted grades. Though Norma should have properly engaged with all unions I’m happy in one way 🤣

[Jason O'Reilly @JasonOReilly422]

Too late, decision has been made cry more
