For the first time in three years, students’ grades were this year based on the traditional format after examinations returned in full earlier this summer.
At schools across Derry, Limavady, Strabane, Dungiven and rural areas of the north west, students were gathering to get their results earlier today.
Pictured are students from Oakgrove Integrated College, St Mary’s College, Thornhill College, St Columb’s College and St Joseph’s Boys School in Derry.
