It's nonsense. Someone posted about the same rumour a few months ago, and it was quickly debunked. Some people just enjoy spreading false rumours for some reason. I've no idea why.

I doubt it was a real leak, people try to scam students telling them "these are the leaked papers, you can buy them for £50". 99.99% of the time its a scam, feeding off the desperation of students.

Now in the off chance the papers were leaked, the exam boards have back up plans:

1.

If they find out before the test day, they have back up papers

2.

If they find out after the test was taken and only a few questions were leaked, they would not mark the questions leaked, and base the grade on the rest of the paper.

3.

If they find out after the test was taken, and the entire paper was leaked, they would not count that paper in the grade.

4.

If they find out after the test was taken, and the entire subject exams were leaked, they have 'contingency days' in June, so they could make people retake exams.

5.

Lastly they would find out who 'knowingly' used the leaked exams and fail them.

Nope, there was a thread on this in November but it was removed. There’s not been any new articles or gov input as far as i am aware 🙂
