A fair paper that followed the layout of previous years and held no big surprises. Students who were well prepared and had spent time practising previous exam questions would have been happy and with the choices available on both sides of the paper and with the phrasing of questions.

The 2023 Leaving Certificate Spanish Higher Level paper was considered interesting,  accessible and generally fair, though a number of students commented that the Listening contained some tricky elements when compared with previous years’ papers.
