Students will have the option to sit written exams if they aren't happy with their calculated grade.
The Leaving Cert written exams will take place from Monday the 16th of November, Education Minister Norma Foley has confirmed.
They were postponed in May because of the pandemic, with calculated grades being offered to students instead and are due to be released on September 7th.
However those students who are unhappy with the Calculated Grade they receive, can also sit a written exam as a way of appealing their Calculated Grade.
Students will then have the option take whichever mark is higher.
In most subjects, students will be graded solely based on their written paper.
Minister Foley says it's not practical to examine oral or practical elements of some courses - or try to complete unfinished coursework.
The exams will be scheduled for evenings or weekends.
