Hi I made this thread because I’m curious on how this year is gonna work
How is your school doing results day?
What grades are you expecting?
Hey! I actually have no idea how my school is doing it - for now the general response is 'let's see what boris says' which isn't the most helpful thing in the world. I'm guessing it's either going to be all online, or it's come into school while social distancing to pick up results. Praying I don't have to retake anything though! 😶

My school are letting us do social distance pick up I think that the government said that we’re not allowed to retake anything but allowed to appeal if we think a grade is inaccurate.

Yeah, we'll probably do that too. Huh? Retakes are in autumn, is what I heard...
I’m scared too. Hopefully we’ll be allowed in school to collect results as it’s more fulfilling in a way. I’m quite confident of my grades because of mocks and stuff but after seeing the thread on IBs...
My school is doing a socially distanced results day. We're lining up outside the school between a set time (I think between 10am and 1pm) and being let inside in small groups to get our results, then confirming which a level subjects we're doing with the teachers if we're staying on at sixth form and you've got the grades to get in. I guess your school might do something similar if it's a socially distanced pick up?
My school is not even risking social distancing We are getting our results emailed to us and the actual physical papers will be posted through to us a few days later Talk about over protective why not let a few of us in at a time

instaed of linning up my school is going to send our results through email, which is terrific in a way
Nevermind, I read back through the email my school sent out today
I don’t think it makes any sense tho like I’m so confused
The appeals process is going to be so tricky. Basically you can't appeal if you think you deserved a higher grade, but you can appeal if you think someone accidentally submitted the wrong grade (eg. pressed 3 instead of 4 on the keyboard). Since we're being ranked, if you appeal to move up it means someone else has to move down. We're basically in a grading hunger games.

I think I understand Students themselves will not be able to make appeals but you can request that the school makes the appeal on your behalf Just an idea im not fully sure
