#MoreThanSchool – what school means to young people

School is back and the Ombudsman for Children’s Office wants to hear from young people. We know that school is about more than education. It’s about friends, fun and a chance for children to be themselves, away from their family. We’ve heard from teachers and parents, from unions and the Department of Education. Now we want to hear from the young people. We’re running a campaign to hear directly from children about how they feel about going back to school and we’re looking for your support. Are they nervous? Are they excited? What is their favourite thing about school? How has school changed during the pandemic? Their Covid-19 School Hero? What is the reality of homeschool? We are asking children and young people to send us a video, a photo, a comment, a reel – anything that shows what going back to school means to them. At the end of the process a panel of judges, made up of young people, will select a winner and four runners up. An ipad and other prizes are up for grabs. #MoreThanSchool will run from Monday 15th March to Monday 12th April. When a student sends us their entry we will make contact to get permission from them and their parents to share it online or on our social accounts. If we don’t get permission, we will not be able to use the entry and we will delete it from our records. If we receive information that makes us think a young person may be in danger or at risk of being hurt, we will have to follow up on this. We would love if your students could take part in our campaign. You will find all the info on www.oco.ie. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to get in touch. Many thanks for your help and best wishes for the weeks ahead. Aoife and the OCO Communications team. www.oco.ie
Candidate Self Service Portal - Important message from SEC for 6th years - please read carefully
Created : 15 Mar 2021, 4:08 PM

Dear Principal, As you are aware the Candidate Self Service Portal (CSSP) opened on Wednesday of last week to allow Leaving Certificate candidates to confirm their subject and level entry details online, and to indicate whether they wish to sit the examinations, to receive SEC Accredited Grades, or both. The Portal will close tomorrow, Tuesday 16th March, at 6 pm and as of this morning, there is an estimated 18,000 candidates who have not yet registered. The registration process is extremely important because, not only does it allow candidates to register and opt for the examinations and/or accredited grades, but will also allow candidates to confirm their subjects and level in late April or early May; access their examination results; view their estimated percentage mark and component marks; view scripts which were marked on-line; lodge an appeal; access their appeal results, view their appealed component marks and access the independent appeals scrutineers process. Given the range of services to be provided through the Portal, I would ask you to establish if there are any candidates in your school who have not yet registered or completed the registration process and actively encourage those candidates to do so before it closes at 6 pm tomorrow. Registration on the portal is a very simple process and involves 3 stages; registration, account activation, confirmation of subjects and opt to sit the examinations or accredited grades or both. On completion of all 3 stages, candidates will receive a confirmation e-mail from the SEC. To date a number of students have also only completed stage 1 of the registration process so it is equally important to encourage any such candidate in your school to complete the process. You can ignore this for students who you have already informed us that they are no longer attending your school. Please remind candidates to read the ‘Before you Start Guide’ which takes them through the process before they commence the registration process. I would be grateful if you could remind the candidates who have yet to register of the following before they hit the Submit button on the portal: When they have made their choices for each subject and BEFORE they hit the Submit button, they should carefully review their selections to ensure they are correct. When they see the Warning do not ignore it; check the page again. They will not be able to go back to alter their choices on the portal at this time. I would also ask that, where feasible, you make your IT facilities available to your students so that they will all have the opportunity and facilities to complete this very important process. Please note if they have any difficulty registering please ring the helpdesk at 1800 1135 or 1800 1136 during 9am and 6pm or email the details including your candidate number to candidateportal@examinations.ie and we will be able to assist you. Thanking you in anticipation of your urgent attention to this matter.
