Junior Cycle results out next month

Students who sat the Junior Cycle exams in 2023 will receive their results on Wednesday 18 October 2023 from their schools.

Candidates can also access their results online from 4 PM on that date, with the Department of Education saying 'this online service is not intended to replace the valuable results service and advice provided by schools at results issue time'.

In 2022 the results were not available until late November due to a combination of factors which included the later issue date for the Leaving Certificate results and the impact of an acute shortage of teachers to mark the examinations.

Separately following the deadline for appeal applications, the State Examinations Commission (SEC) has confirmed its intention to issue the 2023 Leaving Certificate Appeal results to candidates through the Candidate Self Service Portal and to school authorities though the Schools Portal at 11 AM on Friday 29 September.

The issue date of the appeal results ensures that the Leaving Certificate appeals integrate with the process for entry to higher education through the Central Applications Office (CAO). The CAO will be issuing its Round 5 offers on Tuesday 3 October.
