Results slips

Information for exams officers on results slips.

About results slips

On results day students receive a printed results slip from you, also known as a candidate statement of provisional results. Results slips on e-AQA just show results from us. If you want results slips to show all exam boards, you might be able to print them from your Management Information System (MIS).

The results slip shows provisional results. This is so that there's time for enquiries about results (eg, reviews), late award claims and any results that are still pending.

See the following examples:

• Sample GCSE and A-level results slip
• How grades are shown on your results slip
• Sample GCSE, A-level and AQA Level 3 Certificate (Applied General) certificates

Results slips for reformed specifications

Results slips for linear GCSE, AS and A-level specifications only show an overall subject grade, because grades are awarded at the subject level. Individual component results will still be available on e-AQA and Enhanced Results Analysis (ERA).

Endorsements for GCSE English Language spoken language

Results for the GCSE English Language (8700) spoken language endorsement will be reported separately as one of the following:

• pass
• merit
• distinction
• not classified.

This separate grade will appear on a certificate, but won’t contribute to a student’s 9–1 grade.

Endorsements for A-level sciences practical skills

Results for the new A-level Biology, Chemistry and Physics practical skills endorsement will be reported as either:

• pass
• not classified.

This separate grade will appear on a certificate but will not count towards the overall grade.

Applied General qualifications

AQA Level 3 Certificates in Applied Science and Applied Business were awarded for the first time in summer 2017. If a student achieves a pass grade, this will be displayed on their certificate together with a Statement of Attainment showing the list of units taken.

University places

If your A-level students need to know whether they've secured their place at university, see the UCAS results pages. After results day, we update UCAS daily with results files and any changes to grades.

Universities outside the UK

We can confirm results directly with international universities for students who are applying to study abroad. Applications for current results cost £20 per address to cover international delivery through DHL.
