Students across the United Kingdom will be anxiously awaiting their A-Level results this week - hoping for top marks to land them their sought after space at a chosen university.
Things will in-turn be very different this year, as exams were cancelled for the second time in 2021 due to the global coronavirus pandemic. Last year, the UK recorded its most successful A-Level results day for England, Wales and Northern Ireland - with some 44.4 per cent of students receiving an A or A* for their endeavours.
The uplift in grades occurred with students being graded on their teacher's markings of mocks, coursework, essays and in-class results during the pandemic's shake-up to formal education.
