YOUNG PDs SLAM LEAVING CERTIFICATE BIOLOGY PAPER

STATEMENT BY David Cochrane
Young Progressive Democrats

In light of the recent concerns raised over the past few days in regards the Honours Leaving Certificate Biology Examinations, the YPDs have decided to communicate the concerns of the students to the Department of Education.

We share many of the concerns that students who undertook the exam have in regards specific sections of the paper, and are in the process of formalising a submission to relevant people and groups to highlight the issues.

The Young Progressive Democrats have set up a website to allow for students to make their concerns known at http://www.youngpds.org - This site will allow students to leave their comments in regards the paper on the site, we are committed to making sure that these concerns are dealt with and addressed by the people and groups responsible for the exam.

ENDS
