The examinations regulator, Ofqual, are drawing up proposals for an alternative way of deciding qualification grades and they will be discussing alternative arrangements with the Department for Education. Ofqual have said that clarity will be provided as soon as possible In the meantime, teachers at Bishop Challoner are **not** in a position to provide details to individual students or parent/carers regarding the awarding of GCSE, Vocational and A level grades this year. We will provide more information on the awarding of qualification grades once Ofqual publish their guidance. Thank you.
