‘Français, je t’aime?’ 24,000 Leaving Cert students show off their language skills

Close to 24,000 Leaving Certificate students got to show off their French language skills yesterday morning.

Jane O’Dwyer of the Association of Secondary Teachers Ireland (ASTI) said the aural section for all students was based nicely without any strong accents.

The written exam for higher-level students had no major surprises in the comprehension section, with one item being about life in rural France.
