    Y12s at A-Level Results Day
    What should Y12s do on results day, just go up like the Y13s?

    Because i feel it is really more for the year 13s. Do the Y12s get in their way?

    Should Y12s go in a bit later?

    Has your school not sent you a letter with provisions?

    At the schools with whose results-day-formats I am familiar, the year 12s are given a later time to go in.

    Year 12s have just as much right to go in and get their results! My results from last year were much more important and, for me, more highly anticipated than this year's.

    Hopefully a little something is in the post!

    Otherwise, just turn up at a safe time. (Twelve would be my recommendation, but you never know...) They will have your results and I'm pretty sure they're obliged to give them to you! But a Google search hasn't yet confirmed this...

    Go in whenever your college has said you can.

    But if you see someone who you recognise from the year above alone in a corner, grasping their mobile - Stay. The ****. Away.

    Other than that, colleges usually open the doors to yr 12s one or two hours later.

    I asked my teacher as my college isn't the type to keep you in the loop on anything important (I'll likely get a letter through at some point though) and I'm in at 10am at the earliest, with the U6 going in from 8am onward.

    You'll probably get a letter in the post soon, but as far as I'm aware the U6 get their results first and then the L6 get them after that. The college should've organised it so that neither will get in one another's way or what have you.

    Good luck with your results! :^_^:

    Y13's need their results faster though, incase they miss their offers. Plus if everyone from sixth form was collecting their results at the same time it would be an absolute nightmare.

    Y12s go an hour later at my school, and they tend to realise that Y13s are more important anyway. Nobody's in a hurry, they're all just standing around bantering about until the desk is free for them to get results.

    I wouldn't mind First Years there, however, when it comes to speaking to tutors and careers about results, it would be fustrating to be prevented from doing so because of First Years wanting to see them.

    If you really haven't had a letter about it then I'd check your school's website as it may well say. Most places have the Y13s getting their results around 0900hrs and then Y12s being able to turn up and get them from 1000hrs or 1100hrs.

    I don't think my school knows how to update it's website
