Publication of post-16 examination results (including A-levels and BTEC) today

Shropshire Council is today (Thursday 17 August 2023) congratulating all A-Level and BTEC students in Shropshire on their success and wishing them all the best for the future.

The council appreciate that the past few years have been extremely challenging for Shropshire children and young people, given the continued ripple effect of the disruption to their education caused by the pandemic, but applaud their resilience and stamina to be able to sit public examinations again this year.

Councillor Kirstie Hurst-Knight, Cabinet Member for Children and Education said:

“I would like to congratulate and pay tribute to the hard work and determination of all our pupils who have sat exams this year.

“We know a lot of hard work goes into studying for these exams and I hope everyone has achieved the results they need to support them in their future plans.

“It’s fantastic to see our post-16 pupils achieving their potential and going on to their chosen career paths. After a few tough years it’s great to see some normality returning to education and to examinations.

“I would also like to thank all those who have supported our hard-working students this last year – to the teachers and their school and college staff, including our virtual school who support our looked after students, all who have shown incredible dedication to ensure young people are prepared for their next steps in the world.

“For anyone who did not get the results they expected, please contact your school or college who will be able to provide advice and talk through the many opportunities that are available.

“We wish all students receiving their results today the very best for the future.”

Student advice

For those pursuing the university route, applicants can log into the UCAS Track service to check the status of their application.

If students have not been accepted by the university of their choice, there are still many places available through ‘Clearing’.

For those students whose results are different to what they expected their school or college can provide further advice and guidance.
