Boy had not been attending school after refusing to wear a mask in common areas

challenge over a refusal to allow private tutors assist in assessing his calculated grades will be heard next month.

Two weeks ago, his bid to bring a challenge to the mask wearing requirement failed but the separate issue concerning whether his school’s teachers can assess his accredited grades with the help of the private tutors has yet to be heard.He was not required to do so in the classroom as he was provided with a perspex screen.

said the mother, who personally represented him, had not presented any independent medical evidence to support the migraine claim. The separate matter of allowing the tutors input into his calculated grades - assessed by the school’s teachers where the student chooses not to sit the exams — was adjourned. The Department of Education told his mother that, as a registered student in a post-primary school, he can only receive estimated percentage marks from his full-time teachers and not from tutors giving extra tuition outside school.
