Teachers will help students prepare for delayed Leaving Cert through summer

The country’s largest second-level teachers union has said its members are willing to work over the summer to help students prepare for Leaving Certificate exams postponed because of the Covid-19 crisis.

The Association of Secondary Teacher’s Ireland (ASTI) had been criticised for saying that “no teacher will be required to do anything” if the exams were rescheduled for July or August.
