GCSE Results

Hopefully you found that Q&A useful – and if you’re just joining us and have questions about resits, grading and next steps for students, you can find answers below.

We’re going to be turning back to looking at today’s results now. Here’s a recap of what we know so far:

The pass rate across England, Wales and Northern Ireland has fallen for a third year running, returning to levels last seen in 2019 – which was the last year exams were sat before Covid

The proportion of grades at 4/C and above is 67.4% in England, 61.7% in Wales, and 82% in Northern Ireland

London remains the highest-performing region in England, and the West Midlands is still the lowest

The gap between southern regions and other English regions is wider than it was before the pandemic

The government says it’s committed to providing opportunities for pupils across the country

Some people have called for compulsory resits for English and maths to be scrapped

But the schools minister says every young person should have a “strong foundation” in those subjects.

We’ve had lots of individual stories from students sharing their results with us – you can find those by scrolling back through. And we’ve got plenty more to come.
