Leaving Cert Language Classes
Who are Saturday language classes for?
Post Primary Languages Ireland (PPLI) run classes in lesser-taught languages to support students around Ireland to prepare for the Leaving Certificate exams. These classes are funded by the Department of Education and are free of charge for students. Classes are run on Saturdays during school term time.
The classes cover the Leaving Cert course over a two-year period, meaning students should register before they begin 5th year.
