Examinations

The Government have made changes to the way in which GCSEs are to be graded. Starting in 2017 with English and maths, new GCSEs in England will be graded from 9 to 1, with 9 being the top grade. Other subjects are being phased in.

For more information please check the Gov.UK website.
