Consultation on Proposed Changes to Qualifications Performance Measures

Overview

We are seeking the views of post-primary schools and special schools with post-primary age pupils on proposed changes to how qualifications are counted for system level performance measures.  

There are three proposals and you are asked to indicate the degree to which you either agree or disagree with each. If you wish to expand on your reasons for either agreeing or disagreeing with these proposals, or you have any further comments, you may use the free text box at the end of the consultation.

Why your views matter

The Department of Education would like to hear your views on proposed changes to qualifications performance measures.  If you would like to submit your views, please do so by Friday 25 October 2024

What happens next

Thank you to everyone that responded to the consultation.  Following consideration of all responses, the final decision on implementation of these changes will be communicated through the annual Qualifications Approval Circular, which we hope to issue by the end of November 2024 to facilitate curricular planning for the following academic year.
