@White_Chapel0 @ainehyland In 2019 there was an average of 14% of ‘A’ grades between those sitting the ‘old’ HL and OL History JC . Comparing this figure to the 2.8% of Distinctions awarded to those sitting the ‘new’ common level paper in 2022 shows a drop of 11.2% in those receiving the top grade.

Our association along with others and our members have been highlighting this for several years. Unfortunately we have had no real engagement on the issue that continues to affect our students. #jchist #histchatie

@White_Chapel0 @ainehyland There is still a disparity if you use pre-COVID era figures for conparison - 6.7% of students received a H1 in LC Hist in 2019.
