Nationally we are facing a number of changes at both GCSE and A level. The information in this link is provided by Ofqual (Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation – who work with the Department for Education) and these changes are for all schools in England.

An example of one of the changes is a student who is in year 10 will receive both GCSE grades A-E and numbers 1-9 (for English and Maths GCSE only) on their qualifications. Further information can be seen by clicking here.

Another example of the change is the move to ‘linear’ A-levels - so yr12 AS grades will not count for some subjects towards their yr13 A2 A level - again more detailed information can be found on the attached link.

We will be providing further information for parents in the autumn term.
