Grade inflation in the leaving certificate is primarily an issue for the Minister for Education but is the Minister concerned that in this and previous years we have seen students who got maximum points not able to get into the course of their choosing? Does he have any empathy for them? Is there anything he would like to see developed to ensure that does not happen in the future?
