The stomachs of hundreds of thousands of teenagers are churning across the UK this morning, while they wait for their exam results – the culmination of months of hard work.

Results for GCSEs, BTecs and Cambridge Nationals will be released this morning, and we’ll be following the stories of students across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, where those exams are sat.

We’ll also have experts to answer your questions on what’s next for GCSE students, and to cover the big picture of this year’s results.

Best of luck to everyone getting their grades today. It may feel like your whole world revolves around those results – it certainly did for me when I walked into school this time 10 years ago.

But really, I can promise you that it’s just one small part of life, and doesn’t define you.

Whatever happens today, you’ve got this!
