Teenagers receiving their A-level results in Leeds today are being reminded to continue socially distancing due to the coronavirus pandemic as they celebrate or commiserate.
Some schools in Leeds are expected to have the traditional opening of A-level results in person, while others are expected to send results by email.
A Leeds City Council spokesperson added: "Congratulations to all students who received their results today in incredibly challenging circumstances.
"If you are planning any celebrations, please ensure they are in line with government guidelines and social distancing is observed."
It follows warnings from Greater Manchester Police, which claimed those in the district holding A-level results parties would be handed fines for house parties and illegal gatherings.
Leeds City Council has also confirmed it would not be releasing expected A-level results as it had in previous years, as the Department for Education is not issuing performance tables and Ofsted is not using them to inform inspections.
