Call for GSCE results to be postponed as exam confusion continues - BBC News
There's more uncertainty for hundreds of thousands of A Level students, and for children waiting for their GCSE results.
The exams regulator, Ofqual withdrew its guidance on how pupils could appeal their grades hours after making it public.
And the former Conservative Education Secretary Kenneth Baker has said the government should stop “digging a hole” and postpone the announcement of GCSE results.
The Government has been under fire since A Level grades allocated by Ofqual were announced in England - following the cancellation of the exams due to the coronavirus pandemic. Almost 40% of the grades were lower than teachers’ assessments.
Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by education editor Branwen Jeffreys and political correspondent Jonathan Blake.

They had 5 months to organise a level and GCSE grades. How can you only do it last minute? It’s so stupid, and irresponsible

A total disgrace for students who are starting their career choice to be downgraded
Best part about this whole situation is that they had literal months to properly decide how to handle the grades situation. Glad to see procrastination extends to the highest level of government!
Cancellation of exams was a huge mistake. Other countries were able to organise them by applying strict safety rules and there were no covid spikes recorded among the students sitting. And I say it again, Ofqual management needs to be replaced, urgently!

My initial thought of the exam cancellation was quite positive as i thought they were going to provide fair grades based off our previous mocks and coursework however after the government downgrading those results for no real logical reason i wish the exams never got cancelled. As i had never properly revised for my mocks like you would for your real exams. And that is someone the government should have taken to consideration.

My child’s grades where not estimated they were evaluated she had to do tests from her teachers in all subjects based on previous A level exams. Yet because she goes to a college with lower results her grades are down if the average down is 40%. So many socially disadvantaged children’s lives ruined. Remember that some marks have gone up so more than 40% have gone down. Quote I believe from winston Churchill “we will have the working class people grovelling at our feet”. Well done Boris

Yes , it goes well with the universal income planed for everyone .
The process they took was actually priceless. It's such a mess. 1. Firstly what they didn't even take into account is that not EVERY school sat mock exams NOR did they all sit the same exam. Some schools made their mock exams harder/easier. Some students did not even SIT EXAMS. 2. You cannot predict or think about what a student is going to get and then rank them. Just because someone is working at a 6 throughout the year, it doesn't mean they will get a 6. It's unpredictable. They could end up with a 9 for example. That's the reason this process is such a big issue, because you will never know what grade a person will get without that person sitting the EXAMS. It's basically testing the intelligence of 'not so able' students and students that go to a public school vs private schools. 3. It's unfair that the algorithm is choosing our grades. It's taking into account of the prior attainment of last year's 11. The GCSEs themselves is such such a mess aswell because they are made based on last years year 11s prior attainment. That's unfair to the year before and the year about to sit the exam. 4. Now they want to DELAY GCSE exams results. So we have to wait until September. QUICK UPDATE: Northern Ireland are now using predicted grades for Gcses. Not yet sure about england. What is your take on using teachers predictions QUICK UPDATE: Wales have also announced they are using predicted grades. Still waiting on England.

Im not against what you are saying but our grades are not based on the attainment of the 2019 cohort. It is to compare the 2020 cohort to the 2019 cohort; if they find that the prior attainment of 2020 year is higher they will push up the grades of that year because that shows that the students are more able (and vice versa).

Lives are at stake? Our entire species is due to become extinct due to anthropogenic climate change so the entire education system, education elite, and education establishment has failed absolutely everyone so far. What are these exams for? In terms of the survival of our species they are worse than useless.
Predicted grades turn out to be a complete disaster and the only fair way is to have students to sit the actual exam. Can this be done? Of course it can be. 3 to 4 months from now, make ALL students to sit the real A level exam and delay starting year 1 courses at university till November. Reschedule University terms by compressing course curriculum, cancelling reading weeks and shorten Easter, Chrismtas and Summer holidays to 2 weeks each. Yes, this is alot of hassle but this can be done and is the fairest way possible.

Seriously and I cant even appeal it I get a shit grade 🥺🥺🥺
How am I supposed to play a game when the rules are constantly being changed and they’re different from when I started playing?
literally just give us our centre assessed grade our teachers know us more then flipping computers
On Thursday I’m screwed
So now we know the reason the exam grades downgraded were overturned , Ofqual found private educated students from such places like Eton were given higher estimated grades while disadvantaged students from public schools had grades downgraded so not so many students would not get into university because of covid 19 .
It was the Labour Government and Unions who said teachers predictions couldn't be trusted.
Haven't even had BTEC results..
This is very unfair indeed
First the IB and now the GCSE. A total disservice to the students who have put in the effort!
IBO, you should adjust the grades too. its a huge unfairness
This is an utter shambles

It was gay if a man kissed a woman because there is a part of a sperm in a human being which means there is no human if there is no sperm as there is no tree if there is no seed while childbirth is deadlier than coronavirus based on the fact that people will die after being born. t.co/c5Ej8HCo4E

If we have a second wave we’re fucked, my sixth form is attached to the main school which has more than 1000 students so even if one person has it, it will spread in a matter of days. If this were to happen schools would close and exams would be fucked 😂😂😂
I wish I had this for alevels but bit for gcses 😅
Very nice information
How the hell do you misspell GCSE? Its literally just four letters...
Adults know that these results really don’t matter in real life

Depends on what you want to do with your life. If you want to be a veterinarian for example, you’re not going to be able to get a job by telling your local vet how many roadkill you’ve dissected. They want academic qualifications. I thought my poor results didn’t matter when I was 18. Now I’m 22 and reapplying to university because I haven’t managed to get far with only level 2 qualifications.
ah the general secondary certificate of education, who sits these, I was doing the general certificate of secondary education.
So are they being postponed or what?
I really hope they don’t post pone these results 😭
The issue is, to give grades to someone, they have to take them from someone else. They’ve already given out 2.4% more As than last time and if they start upgrading everyone’s grades and not downgrading anything the value of a levels will plummet and all future a level classes will be screwed over.

When I did my Gcses there was no remorse but now they wanna go easy on everybody
Guess teachers aren't trusted. I mean introduce a performance based pay progression for teachers and expect a robust assessment framework... Bloody mess. Trust teachers... they know the students best. Exams do not a happy, productive member of society make.
Not only was it difficult for me to get a job after graduating university, these students are not even getting through the door onto their courses. They are basically being condemned to retail, restaurant work when the high street is dying. It's such a shame for these young adults. I hope the appeals work. For those that come from wealthy families with both parents I'm sure it's fine though as their predicted grades won't be downgrades 3 grades.
Mhm
IGCSE is also uncertain. I can't believe that my grades are very bad like that, my teachers know me better than they are.😞😞😞
The problem is teachers over-predicting students grades. The algorithm calculated the grades that a school should have gotten based on the history of the school, the school then ranked all their students according to mocks and other assessments. Then they distributed the available grades created by the algorithm in order of the ranking that the school did!
Spelling mistake on the title GSCE have to be GCSE
*All grades matter!!*
keeping as many young people in stress , dispair and confusion and mentally engaged in negative government garbage and stupidity 🙄
