Dear Parent

Consultation on how grades should be awarded in summer 2021

Following the cancelling of the summer 2021 exams The Department for Education has launched a joint consultation with Ofqual on how GCSE, AS and A Level grades should be awarded this summer. The link to this consultation and how to respond is here. There is a separate consultation on the arrangements for vocational, technical and other qualifications and how to respond here.

The Department for Education and Ofqual have said that they want to hear the views of students who were due to take exams, their parents and carers, their teachers, school and college leaders and others who have an interest, including further and higher education providers, and employers.

The deadlines for responses are Friday 29 January 2021 at 23:45 and I encourage you and your child to take part in this important consultation so that the views of our school community are represented.

Best wishes,

Mrs Pearson
