For the first time in three years, A-level students are collecting their results having sat exams.

The past two cohorts have seen their results set on teacher assessments and coursework, with Covid preventing traditional exam settings.

Usual service resumed this year, with students sitting exams for the first time in their academic careers - having completed their GCSEs during the pandemic.

Nationally, grades received by students are down on the past two years - but remain higher than pre-Covid levels.

Students will be anxiously opening their envelopes and learning what their next steps in life will be - whether that is university, apprenticeships or entering the workplace for the first time.

- This live list of results from schools in Norfolk and Waveney will be updated as results come in to us, appearing alphabetically.
