Thousands of teenagers across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland are opening up their A-Level, T-Level and BTec results today.

The proportion of A or A* grades is 27.2% - down from a peak of 44.8% during the pandemic. Across the UK, 79% of those receiving results gained a place at their first-choice university, UCAS says.

T-Level results are also being released, along with many AS-level and BTec Level 3 grades. T-levels were introduced in the 2020 academic year so this is the second year students have collected their results.
