    I like this idea, not that it's gonna have any bearing whatsoever on the State Examinations Commision, but it's a nice idea, signing it can't hurt :)

    It wouldn't be aimed at the SEC. It should be sent directly to the Minister for Education & Science and forwarded to the NCCA.

    Well I doub't they'll listen either...

    Actually Mary Hanaffin might, she seems quite in favour of reforming the Leaving Cert.

    The NCCA's job is to look into improving the curriculum and methods of assessment. In fact that did an entire review of the Senior Cycle recently, see [urlhttp://www.ncca.ie/index.asp?locID=343&docID=-1]here[/url].

    That's not the impression I got when she spoke at an Education debate in Trinity.
