Changing secondary school during 3rd year

wheats999 · 2020-02-16 18:45:56

Need to move kid from 3rd year to another school. Told we can't switch to new school now due to the classroom based assessments being part completed. Is it possible to register for the junior cert in a new school, not to attend classes, but simply sit the exams?

It's very messy for the schools involved.
They have to be attending a school somewhere if they are under 16, unless you are home schooling them.

You could contact the SEC and ask them. They run the exams. 0906 442700
