Scoil Mhuire Kanturk Outstanding LC Results 2022

The long wait for the 2022 Leaving Certificate results came to an end for students and staff of Scoil Mhuire on Friday 2nd September. The results achieved were outstanding and given the difficult circumstances of recent years reflects the dedication, talents and hard work of students and staff. Some of the highlights include –10% of students scored in excess of 600 points. In addition, 35% of students achieved in excess of 500 points, an incredible achievement exceeding national statistics. Almost 40% of students took Maths at higher level with all achieving the bonus 25 points. Results in STEM subjects were particularly impressive with the majority of the Technology class achieving either grade H1 or H2. Scoil Mhuire students also sat a very impressive range of language subjects. As well as the core languages of Irish and English students also sat French, German, Spanish and Dutch, with H1 grades achieved in each. The Scoil Mhuire community is very proud of the achievements of the class of 2022 who have shown tremendous resilience in continuing the long tradition of reaching academic excellence in preparation for success in their future life. We wish the class of 2022 all the best and thank our staff for preparing and guiding our students to this success.
