The Irish Times 2025 Feeder Schools list provides new insights into how graduates of Irish second-level schools are progressing to third-level institutions in Ireland. The people who secured places in undergraduate programmes in 2025 sat the Leaving Cert in June last or in a previous year, and attended a wide range of school types, including Deis schools, private fee-paying schools, Gaelcholáistí (Irish medium), and other recognised schools. Students attending Deis schools (English and Irish medium) make up 19.2 per cent of those who sat the Leaving Cert in 2025.
