A TEACHER union representative has backed La Mare de Carteret High for owning up and putting exceptional measures in place to help students with ‘significant gaps’ in their ICT coursework.

TEACHING quality is more important than class size, a spokeswoman for Education has said.

LA MARE de Carteret’s new head teacher has acknowledged that the school must accept responsibility as a new GCSE blunder has put the future education of nine students in jeopardy.   

‘BIG GAPS’ found in ICT coursework – emergency plan to help students

A TEACHING union representative said yesterday that a class with more than 24 pupils was too big.

FURIOUS parents who expected their children to attend La Houguette Primary School in September have accused the Education Department of misleading them.

PUPILS ditched their lifts yesterday and walked to school as part of a national campaign.

MOST people agree that now is not the right time to scrap the 11-plus exam, a Guernsey Press online survey has shown.

EDUCATION will not release details on which primary schools are over- or under-subscribed until it has completed a review of the sector, the department has said.

VITAL evidence that could have cleared or condemned former director of Education Derek Neale over complaints about his management style may have been destroyed.
