The Department of Education told the committee that it was carrying out 'reflections' on the hybrid exam model, which was used last year.
Discussions are still underway about a similar model being put in place this year.
However Assistant Secretary of the Department, Dalton Tattan, says teachers should be given appropriate training if they go down a similar path in the future:
"It's not within teachers training in terms of their initial teacher education or as part of their CPD to be doing formal assessment for state certification. I think it's something which would certainly in the context of any senior cycle review would need to reflect on."
