Thousands to pick up A-level results in Camden, Barnet, Haringey and Westminster

The wait is finally over for thousands of nervous teenagers across Camden, Barnet, Haringey and Westminster who pick up their A-level results today (Thursday).

The fight to secure places at universities will be tougher this year after UCAS reported a 4 per cent increase in applications compared with last year.

This year also sees a record 35 per cent of English 18-year-olds apply to university and college.
