A-level results day 2026: Bravo to Lancashire students
Lancashire looks set to have notched up another year of success in A-level, T Level, BTEC and other level 3 results today.
Although the full picture is still due to be confirmed, initial reports show full pass rates in a range of subjects and fabulous results across our post-16 education and training providers, including colleges and school sixth forms.
County Councillor Matthew Salter, Lancashire County Council's cabinet member for Education and Skills, said:
"Congratulations to all of our Lancashire students on receiving their A-level, BTEC and T Level results today, for their dedication, hard work and perseverance.
"We are incredibly proud of your accomplishments and are excited to see the opportunities that your talents, skills, and passions will lead to.
"Whether you choose to further your education, enter the professional world, or explore other paths, I wish you every success as you begin this new chapter in your adult lives.
"I would also like to say a huge thank you to all the education staff who have supported our young people through their study programmes.
"However, if you didn't get the grades you wanted, please do not think all is lost as you do have options and there is help available.
"Our Talkzone advisors are at hand, to talk confidentially about anything from results, to feeling low, relationships, finding work or training."
Talkzone and the Youth Futures Team.
Young people planning to continue their studies should contact their higher education provider they had planned to attend and discuss the options available to them. However, any young people whose results are not as they'd hoped for can contact Lancashire County Council's Talkzone or the Youth Futures Team.
