You can retake exams but not in the autumn. The resit window is next January. You cannot redo assignment coursework units.

Could we not get fresh assignments to improve our grades?

It has just been agreed that learners can now redo new assignments for units that were awarded by CAGs. Full instructions on now this will work should be released to schools in the next week or two.

Good question! Im sure it would apply to both years but we will have to wait to see what the policy says when released (not sure when, but as soon as I see it, I will post here). However, it will be up to your teachers to mark them and so they may have their own rules regarding students who have left. Additionally, it would add a lot to your workload if you were doing assignments at the same time as Uni work, so if you don't need a higher grade, it might not be worth the extra effort.

Would he know about this whole thing and how it’ll work yet? And is it possible that he could just say no if I asked to re do some units?
Or would it be mandatory for them to let us do this the way all schools have to make it possible for A Level students to do autumn exams?
Thanks for the info btw!
