Over the Easter holidays External examiners were able to view the amazing work which was completed by our Leaving Certificate Applied Students since September. Both fifth year and sixth year students complete several projects or Tasks over the 2 years of the LCA Programme and these Tasks amount to about a third of their overall Leaving Certificate mark. I was delighted to see that each student has submitted all Task Reports in spite of challenges faced during the past few months. Teachers led and managed to facilitate production of some wonderful reports. I have a great awareness of the ongoing work behind the scenes to reach this point and it was all the more difficult as we contended with remote learning.  

The visiting examiners were impressed not only by the standard of reports but also the creativity and variety which was to be seen in the completed Tasks. 

Congratulations and well done to all.
