Got your exam results - what now?

The first port of call for young people should always be their school or college. Heads of year, tutors and careers advisers in schools are there to help and have access to students records and exams results.

For those that have missed out on a university or college place, school staff can offer advice and guidance and can support students in suggesting best next steps.

We have put together links to information, advice and guidance online which will support young people and their families in knowing what to expect when the big day arrives. One list is for those receiving results on Thursday 15 August (A-levels and level 3 qualifications), and another list for those receiving results on Thursday 22 August (GCSEs and level 2 qualifications).
 
Your school or place of study should also be able to offer you advice and guidance, but you can always contact our youth teams by visiting UP in BCP or calling 07880 480602.

Good luck! You have a future full of possibilities ahead of you.
