Ukrainian
Non-curricular Leaving Certificate Ukrainian
Ukrainian has been available as a non-curricular examination paper for the Leaving Certificate since 2025.
What are non-curricular examination papers? In addition to curricular languages, such as French, German, or Polish, the Leaving Certificate also has exam options for non-curricular languages. These languages are typically not available as subject areas in schools. The exams for non-curricular languages have reading and written assessments only. According to the State Examinations Commission website, students may opt to be examined in a non-curricular language if they meet certain criteria.
