CAGS ARE NOT FAIR REPRESENTATION OF STUDENTS ABILITY ESPECIALLY IF THEY HAVE BEEN DOWNGRADED!!!

[Catherine Buckley @buckleybun1234]

ASCL requested centres be permitted to revert back to pre moderated CAGs. Why is @ofqual @GavinWilliamson blocking justice for students downgraded by their schools algorithm.#CAGsappeal @CommonsEd @KateGreenSU @michelledonelan @jessphillips @NickGibbUK @Channel4News @BBCBreakfast

Students nor parents signed anything allowing personal data to be used in this way. A GDPR breach sounds plausible. I’m surprised a legal challenge hasn’t occurred.

@dngasz30 This is so unfair, especially for you 🥺

[Alison @Alevelappeal20]

Is anyone taking a gap year as a result of CAGs

[Alison @Alevelappeal20]

@SuzanneCE Thank you for your kind words ❤️

[Alison @Alevelappeal20]

Not to pessimistic at all but I’m really really worried and have so much built up anxiety. I’m scared because I’m just 2 weeks time we won’t be able to make appeals. I’m scarred that a fair appeals process / predicted grades / honourtheoffer won’t happen anytime soon or At all?!!

[Alison @Alevelappeal20]

@SuzanneCE @YvetteCooperMP @CommonsEd @halfon4harlowMP @KateGreenSU @RealGeoffBarton @10DowningStreet @Number10press @GavinWilliamson @educationgovuk @michelledonelan I really do doubt change will come. All I seem to see is shifting of blame from the algorithm to ofqual. You wouldn’t think these are reasonable level headed politicians in charge - then again they are mostly privately educated a Eton and Cambridge university alumni

[Alison @Alevelappeal20]

@KDon78567212 Have you managed to find a centre where he’ll redo exams or are you appealing the school

[Alison @Alevelappeal20]

@RealGeoffBarton NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

Proving malpractice/administration error hard;
Med/dent/vet have to retake; BMAT/UKCAT/interviews;
6weeks to reteach ourselves subject(s) w/out teaching/support + Incomplete syllabuses;
Poorer/BAME student most affected - can’t afford resit papers in summer!!!

[Alison @Alevelappeal20]

@BirdgirlUK @Kaya_Ilska @KalwantBhopal @GavinWilliamson Then what do we do? I know students who come from a single parent household of less than £11,000 a year, you read that right. We’re currently in a recession with high unemployment and the country is in a 3 trillion debt

[Kaya Ilska @Kaya_Ilska]

'Will the real grade please stand up?'

A fair, individual appeals process against centre accessed grades is vital.

The easiest and fairest way of reaching justice for students are UCAS Predicted grades.

[Kaya Ilska @Kaya_Ilska]

Continue putting pressure on Ofqual and the government for a fair individual appeals process against centre assessed grades!

The fairest option is now to give students 1) The appeals process mentioned above, and 2) Their UCAS predicted grades

#CAGsappeal #CAGSAppeals @ofqual

[Alison @Alevelappeal20]

@Kaya_Ilska @ofqual @Kaya_Ilska I’m really scared that September 17th will come and we won’t be able to appeal

[MLal @LightFunMaybe]

@Ofqual you messed up big. Students still suffering. Allow predicted grades and/or appeal.

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

Easy to think that exams issue is over but:

-still no results for BTECs
-no grades for external candidates
-controversy about some schools routinely making CAGs too low in fear of Ofqual/DfE sanction.
-and next year? DfE says full steam ahead for exams, teachers say impossible

@lemon_and_grass @CAGappeals @michelledonelan @ofqual @lewis_goodall @educationgovuk @BBCBreaking @BBCNewsnight @itvnews @SkyNews @UCLMS Thank you!

We don't plan to stop putting pressure until we have a fair individual appeals process against Centre Assessed grades and until we have justice for medical students!
