Leaving Cert 2026: Key dates to watch out for next
Now that the Leaving Cert results are out, what are the key dates to watch out for next?
The Leaving Cert 2026 results have been released and students need to mark important dates on their calendars for the next steps. Guidance counsellor Donnchadh O Mahony provides the key dates to watch out for. Students can log onto their Candidate Self Service Portal to view the component marks for each subject. They need to calculate these marks into a percentage and determine how close they are to the next grade.
Students can apply online to view their Leaving Cert scripts, which will be available for 24 hours starting on Sunday, 30 August at 9am. On Saturday, students should find a quiet spot with internet access to review their scripts.
Between Sunday, 30 August at 10am and Monday, 31 August at 5pm, students can apply to appeal their results through the Candidate Self Service Portal. This is a very short window of just over 24 hours to make the appeal application.
The State Examinations Commission Candidate Portal helpline will be available via 1800 111 135 or 1800 111 136 from 9am to 5pm starting Friday, 21 August, to assist with the appeal process.
