    My son has informed me that he will be required to pay €10 for each of his his mock exams to be corrected. Is this common practice in schools. Not to be paid through the schools online payment app but in cash.

    Cash in any school situation sounds dodgy these days.

    Who will be correcting the papers?

    I queried it and it changed then to voluntary payment. It had been undecided who would correct them but some internal and some external. I worry now if unpaid is a note taken of who didn't pay.

    Tricky one, just ask the school.

    In our school Students can pay online or bring in the cash, but it is all dinner through the books and recorded.


    What I wouldn't like though is teachers "in house" getting paid.
