With A Level results day just around the corner, it is important to remember that whatever happens on the day, there is a range of options available.
A Level results will be released tomorrow (August 15) online shortly after 8am and will also be available to be picked up from your school or college.
For many there will be tears of joy when they receive the results they had hoped for and secure a place in their dream University.
Others may not receive the results they wanted but don’t worry, there is plenty more options available.
There is the possibility of repeating and bettering your grades next year, or even going to do a course at the South West College.
Another option is Clearing, which matches applicants to university places that are yet to be filled. It’s available to anyone who has made a UCAS Undergraduate application and doesn’t hold any offers.
Equally, if you are not sure what you want to do, there is the option of a gap year, a gap year can give you time to think and re-evaluate your options. In this time you could travel, get a job or start an apprenticeship.
