THOUSANDS of students across Wales will be anxiously awaiting to find out their A-level results.

After a busy school year full of hard work, assignments and exams, many students will now be waiting to see what grades they got so they can start planning for university and other higher education pathways. 

WJEC, Wales' largest awarding body, said: "Results Day is a big day for learners, but it’s important to stay relaxed and to keep things in perspective.

"Whether you’re collecting your GCSE or A-level results – remember that you’ll have a range of options and pathways available to you, whatever your grades!"

In most circumstances, students will be required to head to school to collect their results. 

So they don't miss the big day, here are the dates of when A-level results days will be held in Wales in 2023.
