Last night's Fianna Fáil parliamentary party meeting heard calls for this summer's Leaving Cert to be scrapped.
Some TDs and Senators argued the exams should be replaced with predictive grades once again.
Schools are closed for the rest of the month, but Education Minister and Fianna Fáil TD Norma Foley says the written Leaving Cert will go ahead in June.
