Sir, – I wish to empathise with Caoimhe Buckley (Bad timing on Spanish Oral: Letters to the Editor; March 31st). Holding such a potentially life-altering exam on a Sunday and especially last Sunday is fraught with traps for those distracted by stress.
I hope her letter is circulating to those who set the schedules for state exams emblazoned with the words: “Think laterally”. – Yours, etc,
JOHN HILLERY,
