Some 2,573 students across Limerick city and county received their Leaving Certificate results from 9am, with others living abroad able to receive their results online from 12 noon.

“I am delighted with the results this morning, I am delighted for all our students. They can be very proud of their achievement. I would also like to congratulate their teachers and parents who have supported them over the past 5 or 6 years. I wish them all well on Monday when the CAO offers are made and of course in their futures. They are terrific young men.” expressed David.

 

 

 

Included in the group receiving results were the Leaving Cert Applied class.

David continued to say “I particularly congratulate our LCA students on fantastic results. They have really contributed to the programme and to our school.”

“Unfortunately, not everyone gets the result which they wanted. What I would say to those that are disappointed with their results or who do not get what they anticipate is ensure that you view your exam scripts and if necessary get your examination papers rechecked. Even if you do not get the points for the course you wish to study it is not the end of the world. There are always ways and means of getting to where you want to be in the future.” says Fine Gael Seanad Spokesperson on Education & Skills and Senator for Limerick City, Maria Byrne.

The CAO round two offers will be issued on August 21 and will give students a second chance to decide what route they wish to take in the future.
