English Paper 2 was another fair, engaging and highly accessible paper for all abilities. The questions on the Single Text were even-handed and clearly phrased, providing great scope for students to demonstrate their personal engagement with the text.

Students can now bid farewell to Leaving Cert English as they have Paper Two behind them. It was an enjoyable paper that any well-prepared student should be happy with.

The higher-level home economics paper touched on a number of topical issues. It offered students a great variety of choices in the questions offered, especially with the amendments to the paper this year. The short questions served as a nice introduction to the paper and were very approachable overall with a variety of topics that should cater for all students.

Overall, a thoughtfully composed and accessible paper for all. Question A tasks were well-structured with plenty of scope for personal reflection.

English Paper One was a very fair and enjoyable paper with no major unwelcome surprises. The majority of students should be very pleased with the exam questions, which were phrased nicely and offered lots of scope for both creativity and discursive flair.
