Exam Results
On 23rd March 2020 the government announced the cancellation of all the exams due to take place in the summer of 2020. It also announced that there would be no publication of any school or college level educational performance data based on tests, assessments or exams for 2020.
Given the government’s announcement about the removal of the publication of school level data this year, and the unique method of arriving at grades for students, Worcestershire County Council supported by Worcestershire Children First have also undertaken not to collect and publish school level data. Worcestershire schools and colleges are therefore not required to collate or publish individual school level data.
We would like to pay tribute to the hard work of each and every student, prior to the notice that exams were cancelled, and the resilience shown by them in the period of great uncertainty between March and August. The Ofqual grade awarding process is designed to produce results that offer equal standard of achievement with previous cohorts, and students should today be proud of their achievements.
We offer our congratulations to all students receiving results in the 2020 exam season, and our best wishes for the future.
