Update on GCSE, AS and A level exams 2021
01/06/2021
Dear Students and Parents,
Gavin Williamson, the Education Secretary, confirmed in the House of Commons today that GCSE, AS and A-level exams will not go ahead this year. He said he wished 'to use a form of teacher assessment grades, with training and support provided to ensure these are awarded fairly and consistently across the country'.
Mr Williamson advised that Ofqual will launch a 'detailed' consultation on the plans next week and it will run for two weeks.
As soon as we have further information regarding what this means for you, we will of course advise and work with you. It is extremely important that you continue to engage with your lessons.
For our students studying for vocational qualifications, you should attend public examinations as planned. Again, it is extremely important you continue to engage with your lessons.
To all of our students, we would like to stress we continue to be here for you, to help you and support you. Please do speak to us if you are feeling anxious or in need of additional support.
