A NAIL-biting wait finally ends for thousands of teenagers across Worcestershire tomorrow as A-level results are released.

Youngsters across the UK will discover whether or not their hard work has paid off as they pick up their exam scores from schools and colleges.

While many students will be celebrating gaining qualifications that mean they can pursue their career or university course of choice, there is help on hand for those who did not get the grades they wanted.

The University of Worcester’s Clearing hotline – 01905 855111 – will open at 9am and a full list of courses with places still open is available at worcester.ac.uk.

It will be updated regularly as places fill.

There is also a series of open afternoons taking place during the clearing process to allow prospective students to visit the St John’s campus and view the university’s facilities and accommodation.

These will take place between Friday and Wednesday, excluding Sunday, from 1pm to 3pm.

We will also be running a live blog on our website, bringing you the latest results day news from across the county and the UK.

Students, schools and colleges can share their exam stories online at worcesternews.co.uk.
