​Wakefield Council is sending its support and congratulations to the many young people receiving their GCSE results today (Thursday 23 August).

It is too early to have an overall picture of results across the district but Cllr Margaret Isherwood, the Council’s Cabinet Member for Children and Young People, has sent her congratulations and best wishes to all the students.

​Cllr Isherwood said: “Congratulations to all those collecting their GCSE results today. I am sure there are many young people celebrating across the district today and that their hard work and dedication has paid off. A thank you also to their families and teachers who have supported them through their exams.

“If you didn’t get the results you were hoping for, please contact your school who will be able to give you plenty of support and advice on your next steps.

“Wishing all the students the very best in their next steps.”
