Cheshire East Council has confirmed that 23.4% of entries across the borough were awarded grades A to A*.

Meanwhile, nearly half (49.9%) achieved grades A* to B.

Councillor Emma Gilman, cabinet member for education and SEND at Cheshire East Council, said: "Today is a moment to celebrate everything they have accomplished and the opportunities that lie ahead.

"Whether students are heading to university, taking up an apprenticeship, pursuing further training or starting their careers, they should be incredibly proud of what they have achieved.

"I also want to recognise those students who may not have received the results they were hoping for today.

"While it can be disappointing when things do not go as planned, it is important to remember that exam results do not define you, your potential or your future."
