Calls are being made to reform the CAO points system for entry to third-level education.

The calls come in the wake of the significant changes planned for the Leaving Certificate.

These changes include a minimum of 40 per cent marks for projects across all subjects.

The recommendations from the Senior Cycle Redevelopment Delivery Board include integrating apprenticeship applications with the CAO into one system for both higher and further education.

To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Clare ASTI Representative, Geraldine O’Brien.
