Students across England and Wales will receive their A-level results on Thursday, August 13, with grades released from 8am. The results may determine what the next three years of their lives look like, as university offers are released on UCAS from around 8am, confirming places, rejecting applications, or routing students through clearing.
Grade Boundaries Published by Exam Boards
At the same time, exam boards will publish grade boundaries for exams, allowing students to see how many marks were needed for each grade. This information helps students understand how close they came to achieving the next grade up and whether to request a remark if they missed out on a university place.
Where to Find Grade Boundaries
Grade boundaries for summer 2026 will be available on the AQA website on Thursday, August 13, at 8am. OCR (Oxford, Cambridge and RSA) will publish boundaries for AS, A Level, Cambridge Technicals, Core Maths, Extended Project and FSMQ on its website at the same time. Pearson Edexcel will release AS and A Level and BTEC National grade boundaries for summer 2025 on its website on Thursday, August 13, at 8am.
