Details
The summer report provides a general overview of the summer GCSE, AS and A level exams in England. There is an infographic to give an overview of the data from this summer’s exams.
The delivery of vocational & technical qualifications report sets out some context to the market for performance table qualifications. It also records our approach to monitoring the delivery of assessments and comparing trends and themes in issues reported to us over the last two academic years.
Our standards report explains the work we do to make sure that standards are set and maintained appropriately, and also includes summaries of our work to incorporate more reliable examiner judgements into the decisions about where grade boundaries are set, and analysis to provide context to the National Reference Test results. It also reports on particular cases from the summer, including in relation to A level maths, the predictions used for AS, and grade point thresholds in the first awards of some new BTECs.
