Top degrees for students in England fall for the first time in a decade, university watchdog says
The fall in the proportion of top grades in 2021-22 coincided with many universities ending "no detriment" or "safety net" policies designed to protect grades from being negatively impacted by disruption during the pandemic.The OfS report does not analyse the impact of policies and guidance.
"We are encouraged to see a reduction in the proportion of unexplained top grades but universities and colleges know that they need to continue to take the steps necessary to protect the value of their qualifications, now and over time," she said. "But the sustained increase in unexplained firsts and [upper seconds] since 2010-11 continues to cause us concern."
"Some of the improvements are certain to be attributable to increased investment into teaching from universities and the hard work of students," it added.
