A levels 2021 - what changes will happen?

Do you think exams will get changed?

Will they be delayed further?

Will they be scraped all together like Wales?

Gavin said a “package of measures” would help those distributed, indicating the use of regional grading; inflation for higher grades and maybe lower grade boundaries

Predicted by SAGE numbers of covid cases will surge after the tier system is in place and especially during mixing of households for Christmas and New Years.

Do you think at that point they will see the damage and scrap the exam?

I was talking to a teacher about this and he said that one of proposed ideas was to make mock exams externally set by the examboards but internally marked by teachers. If the SAGE predictions are accurate, it's likely that mocks would play a big role in our centre assesessed grades. As for exams changing, I doubt that the exam content will be changed.
