EARLY indications show that about 99 per cent of students across Denbighshire have been successful in achieving the level three threshold.
This is a slight improvement on the previous year.
About 77 per cent of students achieved A* - C grades.
There have been some excellent individual achievements across all schools with about 23 per cent of students achieving A* and A grades.
Cllr Huw Hilditch-Roberts, Denbighshire's cabinet lead member for education, children and young people, said: "We would like to congratulate all students on their individual results and we wish them every success in their chosen pathway.
"These results highlight the continued focus we have on education and is testament to the commitment shown by everyone concerned.
"The results reflect the years of hard work and dedication of students and the tireless support of their teachers in preparation for the examinations and shows that pupils make strong progress over the course of their education.
"Denbighshire has a consistent focus on ensuring that children and young people achieve well and once again highlights our belief that “every child really matters” as was noted in the recent Estyn Inspection.
"Education remains a top priority in the county and we are extremely pleased to see the majority of schools in Denbighshire continue to improve performance.”
