Plea for leniency issued
The education minister says a blunder which saw pupils given the wrong book to study for a GCSE exam 'shouldn't have happened'.
Year 11 students at Castle Rushen High School were stunned when they sat down for their English Literature paper on Friday, only to find it was on a different text to the one they had spent the year analysing.
The book they had prepared with was one set for the previous year's course.
Graham Cregeen's department is pleading for leniency from the exam board, and has asked for patience while an investigation into what went wrong continues.
