Labour Calls For Leaving Cert Results Date To Be Brought Forward

The Education Minister's being urged to reconsider the release date for Leaving Cert results this year.

They're due to be out on Friday September 3rd, but the Labour Party says mid-August would be more practical.
It says the later date will delay the start of the academic year and create more anxiety for students.
Labour education spokesperson, Aodhan O'Riordain, says the current date isn't workable.
