Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),
Your son/daughter is at present studying the Common Level Junior Certificate mathematics course.This will be the case until Monday 14th November 2022. The Maths teachers have been assessing students on their suitability to take Higher Level over first and second year so far.
The criteria for inclusion in a Higher Level class will be based on the following:
- The assessment completed at the start of October in class.
- Your son/daughter's first year class tests and summer exam grade.
- Recommendations made by your son/daughter's teachers.
It is important to note that Ballymakenny College strives to offer all students an appropriately paced mathematics class and we will try to accomodate as many students as possible sitting Higher Level. We also strive for consistency of teachers where possible.
Classes will be rearranged on the 14th of November into Higher and Ordinary level based on the above criteria.
All students will be informed of level by their class teachers this week.
Thank you for your continued support and co-operation.
Yours sincerely,
Alan Mynes
Principal
