Thousands of students across the county are celebrating their GCSE results, including a prom king and queen who both achieved a clean sweep of grade 9s in all their GCSEs, and a pair of twins who will be going to different sixth forms next year after getting the grades they needed.
Schools across Nottinghamshire welcomed their Year 11s to the school for the final time on Thursday, August 25, to share the long awaited grades after months of hard work and revision. This year's GCSE results were determined by external exams for the first time since before the Covid-19 pandemic, and for most students these GCSEs were the first exams they have ever sat.
Many students have exceeded expectations, and thousands of students are now celebrating the end of an era as they round up their time at secondary school and plan their next steps in education, whether that be sixth form, college, A-levels, T-levels or an apprenticeship.
