GCSE results are out on Thursday 24 August this year – a week after A-level students found out their grades
“There’s no doubt that the pandemic has cast a long shadow, and that’s partly why we’ve put some protections in place,” Dr Saxton told the BBC.
“A student should be able to get a grade that they would have got had there not been a pandemic, even if the quality of their work is a little bit weaker.”, Rachel Taylor, associate director of standards and technical issues, said that exam comparisons should be made with those taken before the pandemic.
She said: “It will be most meaningful to compare this year’s results with 2019, the last year that summer exams were taken before the pandemic. “As in any year, results for individual schools and colleges will vary. The approach to grading means that results for individual schools and colleges are highly likely to be lower than last summer.”
handed out at A-level this year compared to 2022 – a total of 27.2 per cent of entries were awarded these grades, down from 36.4 per cent last year.
