Topical themes bring week two of exams to a close
Association of Secondary Teachers Ireland (ASTI) subject spokesperson Maura McCaul said the higher and ordinary level papers were fair and had no difficult terminology.
She noted topical issues such as low-energy lighting, and said that questions on the male reproductive system at higher level and changes associated with puberty at ordinary level were welcome as they overlap with the science syllabus. Ms McCaul said a higher level consumer question about mobile phones was also relevant to students.
