Why do grade boundaries change?

Because exam papers are different each year, it’s impossible to know how difficult students will find a paper until it’s taken.

Easier paper = higher grade boundaries.

Harder paper = lower grade boundaries.

We are hoping to receive them this week, ready for distribution by next week.

[Ofqual @ofqual]

Ofqual is consulting on the use of formulae and equation sheets following @educationgovuk's decision that students don’t need to memorise them for GCSE maths, physics and combined science exams in 2024.

Spent a fabulous couple of sessions over the last 2 days being interviewed by our inquisitive and thoughtful Year 7s about the examinations role here at WHS.
My favourite question was definitely;
Are you the head of all the exam things?
My answer?
Yes absolutely! 😉
