The State Examinations Commission will issue the 2022 Junior Cert results on Wednesday 23 November.
This year’s results will be published in schools on November 23, and candidates will also be able to see their results online beginning at 4 p.m. on that date.
The State Examinations Commission cites a lack of examiners and the second Leaving Cert sitting as some of the reasons for the delay.
A limited number of subjects are still being graded since examiner availability was an issue.
The delayed results for 68,000 students will be accessible in schools on Wednesday, November 23rd, and online starting at 4 p.m.
The SEC acknowledged that the delay may have disappointed parents and kids, but that the conditions listed made it unavoidable.
An SEC statement read: “Unlike in the summer marking period, teachers are in schools during the day and only available to mark at evenings and weekends.
“The SEC has an absolute responsibility to examination candidates to ensure that their work is marked to the highest standards of quality and integrity and the Commission must be able to stand over the results it issues each year.
“The SEC is extremely grateful for the significant efforts of those teachers who undertook the crucial role of marking the state examinations this year. In advance of the 2023 examinations, the SEC will be reviewing with all of the stakeholders how best to ensure the availability of teachers in the required numbers to complete this important examination work.”
