Students all over Milton Keynes are receiving their GCSE results today

Under 4 represents a fail and most university courses require at least a grade 4 in GCSEs.

This year exam boards have been told to grade three subjects 'more generously' by Ofqual, the government’s qualifications regulator.

The subjects are computer science, French and German but the adjustments will have a “small impact” on pupils’ results, says Ofqual.

And the regulator is still expecting this year’s overall GCSE results to be similar to summer 2023.
