Direct answer
For 2026 A-Level and IGCSE results, the three major exam boards offer different access methods. Cambridge CIE candidates log in at myresults.cie.org.uk using school-provided credentials; private candidates receive results by email. Pearson Edexcel candidates use the Results area at qualifications.pearson.com, logging in with centre number, candidate number, and date of birth. Oxford AQA does not provide a personal online portal; schools receive results and private candidates collect from their exam centre. For UCAS Clearing, visit the official UCAS page for real-time vacancy information.
Cambridge CIE results access
Cambridge International (CIE) provides a dedicated results portal at myresults.cie.org.uk. School candidates log in using the unique account username and password issued by their school. Private candidates do not have access to this portal; instead, their results are sent directly to the email address provided during registration.
Pearson Edexcel results access
Pearson Edexcel results are available through the Results section of qualifications.pearson.com. To log in, candidates must provide three pieces of information: centre number, candidate number, and date of birth—all three are required. Some subjects may also include an item-level analysis report alongside the results.
Oxford AQA results access
Oxford AQA does not offer a personal online results portal. For school candidates, the school receives the results and distributes them to students. Private candidates must contact the exam centre where they registered (for example, British Council) to collect their results in person.
Saving your results
Regardless of how you receive your results, it is recommended to save an electronic copy (screenshot or PDF) immediately. This copy will be needed later for converting to an unconditional offer and for visa applications.
UCAS Clearing
UCAS Clearing is the UK undergraduate admissions process that operates after A-Level results are released. It is separate from exam board results systems but closely timed with results day. For accurate, real-time information about available courses and vacancies, refer to the official UCAS Clearing page. Vacancy data changes frequently and must be checked directly on UCAS.
