EDUCATION MINISTER NORMA Foley has told teaching unions the government wants the Leaving Certificate to go ahead as planned. 
However, concerns were raised about exam candidates not getting back to school soon, and what would be Plan B for the Leaving Cert.
The minister has said that the plan at the moment is for the exam-based Leaving Cert to go ahead this year.
Talks between teachers’ unions and the Department of Education concluded just after 2.30pm.
The meeting was held after the Government reversed a decision to have Leaving Cert students return to school buildings from next week.
