GCSE students have been warned that results will be lower this year than last year.
Less top grades are expected to be handed out this year
It comes after A-level grades were released last week, where the proportion of top grades were less than last year but higher than pre-pandemic levels – this is because there is still protection in the grading process following the disruption of Covid. Rachel Taylor, associate director at Ofqual, said that exam comparisons should be made with those taken before the pandemic.

The approach to grading means that results for individual schools and colleges are highly likely to be lower than last summer."The traditional letter grades, A - U, were replaced with numbers in 2014.
