GCSEs and A-Levels set to change
Significant changes to GCSEs and A-Levels is the reason the Island's high schools will close for an extra day this summer.
Secondary schools across the Island will switch from the English GCSE to the IGCSE in the next academic year, with simultaneous changes to A-Levels.
All five Manx high schools will now open a day later than planned, on Thursday September 10.
Co-ordinating Advisor for 11-19 Education Paul Craine says teaching staff need the additional day to help cope with the changes:
Government issues clarification on proposed changes to public housing policy
DHSC 'considering policy options' as Hyperbaric Chamber calls for more funding
'Really special', says charity as historic furniture returns to Island
Government 'supporting' Strix after announcement of Ramsey factory closure
