Alternatively, students can appeal to receive their mock results or sit autumn exams. Schools can also appeal on the basis of process or data errors, including when schools have had a change of leadership or they& #39;ve talented students but have not had strong results in the past.

A national Exam Results Helpline will be operating from 8am to 10pm on 13 to 28 August for young people or their parents to speak to a professionally qualified careers adviser if they need advice on their next steps. The number for this is 0800 100 900.
