Consultant clinical psychologist Dr Nihara Krause specialises in teenage mental health and is working with the Talking Futures campaign to help parents engage their children in meaningful conversations about their futures. She says if a young person doesn’t get the grades they were hoping for, they may be highly critical of their performance in comparison to their peers. As you continue on your journey, I want you to know that I will always be here for you, whether you need advice, a listening ear, or a good laugh. You have a bright future ahead of you, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you will accomplish. Just promise me one thing: never forget to call your old man every once in a while. I’ll be waiting by the phone. We know you were a bit nervous before the GCSE exam season, but this proves that you really can achieve anything in life with a bit of effort. Optimism is the one quality more associated with success and happiness than any other.” – Brian Tracy

Although we have many great performances at the top end, with large numbers of grades 8 and 9, we want to recognise all the huge achievements from students that have been dealing with very difficult circumstances. You’re such a dedicated and diligent student, and all your hard work is going to pay off, just watch. We've mentioned a few things above, but what other objects and occurrences do people traditionally think bring good fortune? Here's a few: These exam wish quotes can motivate and help them to believe in themselves, and strive for success. By adopting a positive mindset and embracing hard work and perseverance, students can achieve their goals and reach their full potential. The proportion of GCSE entries awarded top grades has fallen from last year but is higher than before the Covid-19 pandemic, national figures show. Hundreds of thousands of teenagers across the country received their GCSE exam results on Thursday in a year when efforts have been made in England to return grading to pre-pandemic levels.Don’t let nerves get the best of you. You’ve got the knowledge and skills to do well on your GCSEs. While the implication is that someone may be in danger and thus has to “be careful,” this doesn’t always need to be true. Academic attainment overall was in line with or above 2019 pre-Covid outcomes. The school saw some outstanding individual performances, such as Alys Wood and Maja Piwarska, who each earned eight grade nines. From the moment you were born, I knew that you were destined for greatness. Your curious and adventurous spirit, your infectious laughter, and your kind heart have always set you apart from the crowd. Seeing you learn and discover new things has been a constant source of wonder and inspiration for me. You’ve done us all so proud; we knew there was a brainbox in there (even though five years from now, you likely won’t remember most of what you learned)!

Clements points out that comparison culture may not just affect teenagers – if their results aren’t as good as expected, mums and dads might start comparing their own parenting during the revision and exam period with other parents whose kids have got better results.

Four high-achievers who are all now heading to St Brendan's Sixth form for A-Levels, and their impressive clutch of grades, are:

If your child has achieved good results, which may be better than some of their friends, then they’ll want to celebrate. But while celebrating is of course a great idea, Clements suggests: “You may want to talk with them about how to be sensitive and compassionate towards their friends who haven’t done so well.” Sometimes we all just need that little extra boost of encouragement, and an inspirational quote can be the best way to lift someone’s spirits and leave them feeling motivated and ready to face any challenges that lie ahead. Here are a few of our favourites: If there’s any time to use an inspirational quote in a card, surely, it’s for the most hardworking student you know. So, for anyone feeling super proud, here are some ‘well done’ quotes that we’ve found: King’s Oak Academy in Kingswood has also congratulated Year 11s on their GCSE and BTEC results. A spokesperson said: "Like all schools, our student’s earlier years of secondary education were disrupted due to the pandemic, however, to their credit, and with the support of their parents and carers, friends and the staff at King’s Oak they have taken the challenges that resulted from the pandemic in their stride and showed great tenacity and resilience to ensure that they achieved their full potential in each programme of study. We wish all of our students the best for the future and look forward to hearing of their successes as they move into Post 16 learning."

What's luck got to do with it?

Don’t let this bring you down, we know how hard you worked and are so proud of what you’ve achieved! Blow them away” is an encouraging idiom we use to show someone they’re good enough for something. We use it when someone has to perform or when they are going to meet new people, and they’re scared of the first impression they might set. Headteacher Nat Nabarro has said “I am incredibly proud of all of the staff and students and parents at Blaise High School. This group of students have attended school through a period of national crisis, they are the first set of students for whom their grade boundaries have returned to pre - covid levels, and that is despite these students being disproportionately affected by COVID.
