For anyone confused about the C3/C4 Leaks

To prevent any increased predicted grades, each teacher from each school will have to resubmit predicted grades again and it has to be accurate.

Honestly, right now the best option is to use predicted grades. When someone misses their exam for illness purposes or whatever they use predicted grades. I dont see how this situation is much different. This should apply for only this year. For next year it should be made very clear that if anyone cheats there would be a resit. But since this is a new case then this is the only proper way of dealing with it. If people are unhappy with their predicted grades they can sign their names and edexcel can mark their papers and they will get their actual grade. This is the most effective method. In which case, it wont be costly for edexcel, people wouldnt have to worry about holidays or uncertainty of resits.

This does not work in the slightest, I had a really *****y year last year due to personal reasons, I got a U in further and an E in normal maths.. not surprising as j had a 50% attendance, and therefore was predicted a D in maths. I now am working at a A-A* level, most likely getting As in all of this year's modules except C4, this would be VERY unfair for me if they did this as I don't deserve a d

This will probably make teachers go higher cos itll make them look good - at least thats what my school would do

Notice how i said if people are unhappy with predicted grades then they can get edexcel to mark them. Please read what i wrote fully.

I don't think they'll arrange a resit either, there's just no enough time. Do you think people should just be given their predicted grade?

I'm not the person that you replied to, but I understand where you're coming from. People cheating (allegedly) in an exam is frustrating for all of us, and there's no straightforward solution to the problem that satisfies everyone. Despite a retake being unfair to those who performed well, it is the solution that most effectively reduces this issue. However, it's extremely unlikely due to fact that there is no date that will suit everyone due to different holiday timings etc. , among other factors that make it unlikely.

How about exempting A-Level maths from this year's university requirements?

probably 2 then

I have a few solutions to what should happen following this breach:

1) Edexcel should invest in numerous lie dectrors. Each student who participated in the Edexcel C3 and C4 exams should go into school and take the lie detector test, 3 times to reduce uncertainty, those who lied about not having cheated should be disqualified, leaving all of us who did the paper legitimately to prosper.

2) The grade boundaries should follow that of a normal distribution, with those scoring middle marks the A* and those scoring high or low marks awarded increasingly lower grades as their marks tend towards the 5th and 95th percentile.

3) Pick the grade out of a hat, each student should be awarded a randomly allocated grade from a hat
