Junior Cycle Results 2022
We cannot possibly do justice to the Leaving Certificate Class of 2022. As Principal Mrs. Eileen Donohoe expressed, ‘We are tremendously proud of each and every one of our students. They are wonderful Ambassadors of our school and despite the upheaval of the last two years, their spirits never waned and they embraced all of what school life has to offer.’
We know that the Leaving Certificate is about much more than points but the outstanding achievements of a number of our students deserves mention. A staggering 36 % of our students scored in excess of 500 points, with 19 of these achieving more than 600 points. These incredible students succeeded in achieving H1s across the board in their subjects.
Below is a little glimpse into the stellar students that have graced and continue to grace our halls.
