Leaving Cert Results: Students apply themselves to get top results

Some of the biggest exam celebrations this week were at Scoil Bernadette in Cork where 13 students collected their Leaving Certificate Applied results.

The special school on the grounds of the Cope Foundation on the city’s northside hosted students and their family members who had been waiting since June to see how they had done.

Niamh Cafferkey admitted to being a bit nervous beforehand, but she was “very happy and so glad” after getting her results.
