ASTI: Minister wanted teachers to 'put up or shut up' by releasing Leaving Cert guidelines early

The general secretary of the Association of Secondary Teachers in Ireland (ASTI), Kieran Christie has said that the Minister for Education acted prematurely in issuing the guidelines for teachers in assessing predicted grades for this year’s Leaving Certificate.
The Minister should not have “put out the details” as there were issues that had not been completely resolved, said Mr Christie.
