GCSE's would be a slightly higher level than Junior cert but lower than leaving cert. In order to apply for courses in UK UCAS is used. They will take Leaving cert results into account when applying, its like in Ireland where application is based soley off points, other stuff are taken into account also.
Check UCAS.co.uk for more info.
