Hi everyone
We’re here to help students to progress with grades they can be proud of, despite these very challenging times.
Ofqual, our regulator, has now set out the process we’ll be following for students who were due to sit GCSE, AS/A Level and EPQ examinations this summer to provide them with a centre assessment grade and we have summarised the details here.
We’re pleased that the professional judgement of teachers is at the heart of this. We’ll then build on what teachers give us by standardising grades across all schools and colleges. This means the grades students get this summer will be fair and of equal status to students’ grades in other years and recognises the students' work.
We know that many of you will still have questions that need answering about grades this summer. This is particularly so for vocational qualifications, and we’d like to thank you for your enormous patience at this anxious time. We continue to work closely with other exam boards, our regulator and the DfE so you can have clarity about every qualification.
