MOCK EXAMINATION INFORMATION
Dear Parent / Guardian,
We are contacting you at this early stage in anticipation of your son/daughter sitting their Leaving Certificate Mock Examinations in February.
The research from educators has long since proven the immense benefits of sitting mock exams. These benefits include:
- Similar exam conditions to the State Exams in June allowing students to discover which practices work best for them.
- First-hand experience of the extent of study and effective revision strategies needed to sit a series of exams such as these in a short period of time.
- An opportunity to revise coursework for each subject and identify areas that may need attention.
- A realistic exam experience providing the space to practice effective time management.
- Impartially marked exams will give the students an accurate understanding of where they are with their study.
We are fully conscious that the cost of mock papers and their corrections can place a financial strain on families, particularly in the current climate. Nevertheless, we feel that the benefits of having impartially marked exams will provide an invaluable learning experience for our students and will better equip them for the reality of exam conditions in June.
The cost for all mock exam papers and corrections will be - €120
This can be made as a single payment of €120 or in three separate instalments of €40 through the School Office or on Compass. The final date for full payment is January 31st, 2025.
