Almost 62-thousand students nationwide have received their Leaving Cert results today.

The grades the class of 2023 get today have been adjusted in line with the inflated grades of last year.

The State Examinations Commission was instructed to ensure there was "no cliff edge" following last year's results.

Speaking to Shannonside Northern Sound, Principal of Coláiste Dún an RÍ in Kingscourt, Mr Boyle highlighted the fact that there are so many different avenues to take for students no matter the results they have received today.

The Co Cavan school principal says it was the first time the class of 2023 sat a State exam, after their Junior Cert was cancelled during the pandemic.

It adds a bit more excitement to the fact that they haven't sat a state exam previously until their leaving cert, the results via online just pop up on the screen in front of them and to see the delight on their face and its the first time for this school and me as the principal to see that.

A very special day indeed, with great excitement in the air today along with satisfaction and rightly so, we have very lucky to have a state of the art facility here in Kingscourt and more importantly we have the teaching team that is needed here to make sure that students can do their very best over their period of time at our school.
