Hours before thousands of pupils in England, Wales and Northern Ireland received their A Level and B-Tech grades, the Education Secretary Gavin Williamson, apologised for the disruption to schooling in England.
It comes after last minute changes to the appeals process for exam results, by ministers who are anxious to avoid the controversy that's unfolded in Scotland.

The changes have led to confusion and controversy.
