Of the almost 900 students on the Isle of Man who received their GCSE results yesterday around 90 per cent will be continuing with full-time education.
That's either through school sixth forms or University College Isle of Man.
21 per cent of students secured the highest grades of A* and A with 72 per cent securing A* to C marks.
