Teachers to grade students for cancelled exams

By ITS Education Asia


This article from the BBC is reporting on how GCE A level & GCSE grades will be awarded this year now that exams have been cancelled (please note this does not yet apply to International A-level and International GCSE).

Teachers in England will be asked to assess the grades they think pupils would have achieved in cancelled GCSE and A-level exams.

This will be used by exam boards to decide results - along with a ranking by ability of pupils in each subject in a school, also judged by teachers.

This approach from the qualifications watchdog Ofqual will replace exams disrupted by the coronavirus outbreak. Results days will be no later than originally planned and may be earlier.

Teachers' predictions for A-levels, AS-levels and GCSEs in England will be based on the evidence available - such as previous exam results, tests, homework, coursework, mock exams and what the regulator calls "general progress during your course".

Please check with your exam centre for how this will affect you.
