We understand how unsettling and difficult the last few months have been, particularly with schools and colleges being closed for the majority and all exams being cancelled.
The College have worked hard within Ofqual and the awarding organisation’s (AO) guidance to ensure we have been able to gather evidence, calculate, and submit grades to the AO for final review to allow our students to progress to further study or employment as expected.
We work with a wide range of awarding organisations who are managing their processes with results differently and so there could be differences with how and when we communicate your grades to you depending on the qualification you have studied.
It is important to remember that the grades you receive this year will carry the same value as any other year.
Below we have listed a series of answers to a number of questions you might have at the moment:
