AN exam board office in Londonderry is amongst three to close this month due to budget constraints as the Council for the Curriculum, Examinations and Assessment (CCEA) consolidates in Belfast, it has emerged.

Three staff will be affected by the decision of the Council for the CCEA not to renew the rental of office space in Londonderry, Omagh and Newry beyond this month (June 2011).

Education Minister John O’Dowd revealed the office space was being relinquished due to budget constraints.
