Year 13 should not leave the school on results day without having received advice or support if they need it, and furthermore, should have completed and submitted the 'destinations' form included in their results envelope before leaving the building. Please could Year 13 students also return textbooks and other resources loaned by the school on this morning.
University Applicants
Your UCAS Hub will start updating from 8.15am, showing if students have been accepted onto either their firm or insurance university choices, or in some cases neither of those options. This could suggest there is an issue with students' grades in that they have not met the entry criteria of the courses they've applied for, or it could be that the universities are still making a decision on whether to admit the students to courses.
Students are advised to log into UCAS track prior to 8.30am to see if their university application status has updated. However, students should remain calm as it can take UCAS a while to update as results day progresses. A reminder that school is open from 8.30am for both the collection of results and for students to receive any guidance they may need about their next steps.
