Students can access their results online or at their school
Approximately 3,000 students in Kildare are receiving their results today.
Almost 62,000 students are receiving their Leaving Certificate results, which have been artificially boosted by an average of almost 8%.
The adjustment has been made following a promise made by Minister for Education Norma Foley that results received by the class of 2023 would be no lower than last year's.
This year’s post-marking adjustment is considerably higher than that applied to last year’s results.
Last year’s marks were artificially increased by an average of 5.6%. This year the average hike is 7.9% and 71% of all grades awarded have risen as a result, compared to 50% last year.
This is the third year of disruption to the setting and marking of exams due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The State Examinations Commission has said that the stronger adjustment was needed because this year’s base aggregate results were significantly lower than those of 2022.
They were closer to marks received in 2019, before the pandemic disruption.
