Leaving Cert students should be assessed on a staggered basis over two years instead of facing a single set of summer exams, according to groups consulted as part of an official review of the senior cycle.

The proposal is one of a series that, if agreed, would amount to the biggest changes in the Leaving Cert in half a century.

Brian Mooney Editor of “Ireland's yearbook of education” and  Harry McCann founder of  “Trendssetter.ie” join Ivan to discuss.
