Yeah ! I'd love ICT and computers are such an essential part of life ! I came from Spain and went into 5th year and ICT was a compulsory subject over there and I lvoe it !

Thanks for the comment. Yeah it's great that your school is proactive in promoting ICT but gaining a qualification would be an extra incentive. Also, irish pupils may be at a disadvantage when going up against pupils with ICT qualifications for college places. Hopefully it's introduced in the not too distant future. Surely it should be deemed important enough to be examinable by now!

I think that would be a brilliant idea. I am ICT captain in school and it would be great to earn points doing something I love!
