How to repeat your leaving
Question: I want to repeat the Leaving Certificate but I don't know how to find a course or how much it will cost?
Answer: City and County Vocational Educational Committees (VEC's) offer repeat Leaving Certificate courses in a number of colleges throughout the country. Alternatively a number of private colleges offer repeat Leaving Certificate courses. Enrolment and advice on subject choices normally take place from the beginning of August to mid September each year, depending on the college. The cost of doing a repeat Leaving Certificate varies. VEC colleges are the less expensive option and usually charge 200. However students are advised to check with their local VEC to see what exact costs are involved. If you choose to repeat it with a private college the cost is considerably higher.
