Leaving Certificate Programme

Leaving Certificate is a 2 year programme.

• Full time commitment required over 2 years.
• 5th year is very important especially for those hoping to gain entry to high points courses.

Usually a maximum of 7 subjects are taken for the Leaving Certificate.

• An extra (8th) subject? – need to think very carefully about this as each LC subject is extensive and requires a lot of work. Big jump in standard from J.C.
• Other subjects could suffer if workload is too great.
• For points purposes best 6 subjects are counted.
• LCVP – eligibility based on subjects chosen
