Remember, whatever the outcome today, GCSE Results don't define you!

If you know someone who has received their GCSE results, it can be a good idea to find out more about how they might be feeling – and how you can support them.

When you find out you are pregnant, you can refer yourself for NHS pregnancy care so you start care with a midwife right away.

Once you sign up online, the maternity team will contact you to book your first appointment with a midwife.

You should do this by the 10th week of pregnancy, if possible, but it’s never too late to start. If you're over 10 weeks, refer yourself as soon as you can.
