Is this good news ??

A level and GCSE results will now be based on teachers' predicted grades without the moderating process.

If students are unhappy with their grade they can choose to accept the result achieved in their mock exam or to resit in the Autumn.

Removing the moderation process will obviously increase grades for some, whether this is "fair" is debatable.
I do not believe, however, that any teacher would have submitted grades lower than the mock grade achieved so the second step is absolutely meaningless.

Last-minute changes have been made to the way A-level and GCSE results in England are to be decided.

Positive News ...
Ofqual has predicted that students’ results this summer will be “better” than last year’s, with an increase of 1% for GCSE across the grades and around 2% for A-level grades.

GCSE and A-level students in England will be awarded calculated grades on the usual dates next month based on teacher assessments

Now that we know there will be an exam resit opportunity in Oct / Nov, we have created a waiting list ready for our September reopening.

Time will be tight so we'll need to hit the ground running.

If you are concerned that this year's grading system will not provide the results your son/daughter deserves, please get in touch today. Places will be confirmed in the week following results day so there is no commitment at this stage.

Many children will start back to school this week and we just wanted to send a huge GOOD LUCK message to all - children, parents, carers and of course, teachers. 👍
Adapting to the new routine might well be tough for some, please be patient while everyone settles in.
