JJ Cavanagh, Examinations Manager at CCEA had these words of encouragement for students:“Results day can be a very exciting time, but we also understand that it can be an anxious time for students, their parents and their teachers.

"That is why CCEA provides a helpline which offers easy access to dedicated and experienced staff who can support students and give details of the full range of services that we offer.

"Access to this kind of information means that students are better prepared for making important decisions about their future. For example, CCEA offers an Enquiry about Results service where schools, on behalf of their students, can request that an examination is re-marked.

"In addition to the Helpline, the Frequently Asked Questions section of the CCEA website contains important information which is available out of normal office hours. This includes useful information on how to interpret your results.
