Deferred Examinations 2022

For the 2022 Leaving Certificate, it has been announced that a second sitting of the Leaving Certificate will be provided with access strictly limited to students unable to sit one or more papers in the main sitting in June on grounds of serious medical reasons and due to close family bereavement.  For the 2022 examinations  candidates with Covid-19 or with symptoms of Covid-19, will also have access to a deferred sitting of the examinations.
