Ofqual says it has built protection into the grading process which should enable a pupil to get the grade they would have received before the pandemic, even if their quality of work is a little weaker this year.
Earlier this week an education expert said GCSE results day"will not be as enjoyable" as it was during the pandemic as around 300,000 fewer top grades could be awarded.
He suggested there could be about 300,000 fewer entries graded 7 or above compared with 2022 if grading standards return to 2019 levels.How do grades differ across the UK? In general a grade 7 and above is roughly equivalent to an A and above, while a grade 4 is considered a"standard pass".
