Jeremy Clarkson has broken his silence on A-Level results day as tens of thousands of students anxiously await their results this morning.

The presenter and Clarkson's Farm star's annual results day tweets have become a traditional tenet for worried teenagers as they find out what grades they have achieved throughout the morning.

Taking to X,formerly Twitter,on Thursday Clarkson wrote: 'Morning everyone. Anything going on?' 

The presenter,who received a C and two Us,typically takes to social media to reassure students who didn't get the results they were hoping for that there are still plenty of opportunities they can take advantage of.

It comes as Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson said A-level results are expected to be 'broadly in line with last year',as she revealed that she achieved four A grades in her own exams.

She told Sky News: 'To our young people receiving their results,there are lots of great options out there in terms of what you can go on to do next.

'For those young people who get what they need and move on to their destination of choice,that's brilliant.

'For those who perhaps fall slightly short,there are lots of options out there. There are lots of people that can be there to provide advice and support,whether that's the school or college,UCAS through clearing,or the National Career Service.

'So I want to wish them all the very best,but to reassure them that there are plenty of opportunities that are there.'

Speaking to BBC Breakfast about her four A grades,she added: 'I had to overcome quite a lot of my life to get to that point,but it was [not] a straightforward journey.'

Ms Phillipson also said she was 'really surprised' to hear that students with T-levels are not being accepted by some universities.

She added: 'I think T-levels are an important part of our system. I think they provide really high quality options for young people around technical and vocational education.'

'What we're doing at the moment is looking at the other options that sit alongside T-levels to make sure that we've got a good mix,so that all of our young people are able to study for a really high quality qualification,' she continued.
