This Thursday (August 15), teenagers across Leicestershire will be waking up to find out how they fared in their A-Levels. This will herald the start of making huge decisions about the next steps in their life – whether that is finding a job or apprenticeship or moving on to higher education.
On the day, students will be expected to go to their schools or colleges to collect their results which are usually available from 8am. The UCAS hub which tracks university applications will also give the results on the same day – usually from 8am.
