Called in early for GCSE results?

So there was an email that went out this morning telling us all to come in at 9:15 at the earliest for results, but I (and my friend, and presumably others) got a call later telling me to come in an hour earlier for 'photos'? According to someone in a higher year, this means I'm in the highest band of results and it's for the newspaper, but I don't want to start celebrating now just in case. Anyone else have experience of this, or are being told to collect them early tomorrow as well?

I got a call for this too. Interesting. I'm predicted 10 A* so I'm definitely a high achiever so it could just be that.

That's what I hope it is. I'm trying to message different people from my school to see how many people got asked.
Well done guys

What time did you get the call?
Yep that means you did well, I had a similar call 2 years ago too, well done! 😊

The people that called in for my year group had results ranging from 3A* - 10 A* if your wondering how good 'well' is

Sometime around two o'clock- why?

And if that's the case I'll be so happy. Thank you :smile:
The likelihood here is that you've done very well - so congratulations!! :biggrin:

What happened? I know it’s a year since you posted this but I’m receiving my GCSE results tomorrow and I’ve got a call to go in early and I’m really nervous about it x

nope! Every school has photos BUT not every school sends notifications or calls people in early. my school for example has results at 9am anyway, and they'll take photos then and there. not at any point before.
