Can't Find a school that will take in an External Candidate

dublad2k15 · 2019-01-29 10:46:57

I've called many schools in my area and they don't take in external candidates. What do I do as the deadline approaches for filling the leaving cert form. I'm studying from home

Contact the SEC. You can sit it in one of their centres.

From their memorandum of Instructions:
Alternatively if you wish to sit in one of the External Examination centres (where permission is not
required), please indicate this on the online application. Note, these centres are available for Written
Exams only.
Overend Hall 29 Upper Leeson Street Dublin 4
Central Missions Hall Lr. Abbey Street Dublin 1
Marino Institute of Education, Griffith Avenue, Dublin 9

See it here. Lots of info regarding practical exams etc. for external candidates.

Will your old school not let you sit it there? They would know you.
