GCSE results day is here and students across South Cumbria finally get their hands on their all important results.
Today pupils will be returning to their secondary schools to find out their grades.
The GCSE results are a culmination of five years of studies and the students will be celebrating with friends, family and teachers.
In just a couple of weeks the 16-year-olds will be embarking on college studies, apprenticeships and employment.
