      Hi Caitlin,

      GCSEs are important but do not completely determine your future in any way. You have to do your best in exams but if your results aren’t what you expect, then don’t feel that this would be the end of the world.

      GCSEs are helpful for progressing you to the next level of academic qualification, be that an apprenticeship programme or going on to do A levels.

      Best of luck with your exams!
