A grade 4 or higher will be achieved by the same proportion of pupils who currently attain a grade C or higher.
•
A grade 5 is intended to act as a benchmark against international standards. The proposal is to set this at between half and two-thirds of a grade above the minimum required for a current grade C.
•
A grade 7 should be set such that the proportion achieving at grades 7, 8 or 9 should be the same as those who were awarded A or A* in the last year of current GCSE examinations.
•
Approximately half of the proportion awarded A* should achieve a grade 9.
•
Two options are suggested for current G grade:
•
Class as ungraded so that grade 1 is equivalent to current grade F
•
Merge current grades G and F to become new grade 1
•
Decisions about grades 2, 3 and 6 – and how they compare with current grades – will be considered after responses to this consultation.
