The long wait for more than 67,000 students ended on Wednesday with the arrival of this year’s Junior Cert results, the first set assessed externally since the onset of the pandemic.
This year marked a return to externally delivered exams through the State Examinations Commission (SEC), and the first year in which all exams have been delivered under the new curriculum.
