Leaving Certificate exams finally bring an end to a senior cycle like no other

This year’s Leaving Certificate class spent approximately a quarter of their senior cycle learning remotely due to two extended school closures.
Today marks the beginning of a Leaving Certificate like no other, with thousands of students finally rounding off a senior cycle which saw them learning from home for months on end.
While the written exams begin with English paper 1, almost three out of ten students will not take a written paper in the subject after opting for accredited grades only under the 'two-track' approach to assessment.
