Heavy! The UK Department of Education has announced its 2022 A-Level/GCSE exam plan! #A - Level# #留学 #

The British government network officially announced on the 7th that the 2022 British "middle school entrance examination" and "college entrance examination", that is, GCSE and A-level examinations will resume for the first time after the epidemic! The difficulty of the GCSE and A-level exams will increase when they resume, and the proportion of high scores will be greatly reduced.

The Times survey found that last year's grading model not only spawned score inflation, but also widened the gap between rich and poor: In expensive private schools, students' high scores are significantly more exaggerated. In pre-pandemic 2019, only 16.1% of UK private school students achieved the highest A-level A* at A-level, and last year, when they were scored by teachers, the proportion soared to 39.5%, and some private schools even rose from 30% to 90%. By contrast, public schools with the most inflationary scores rose from 32 percent to 67 percent.

The education department said the 2022 summer exam would be considered a "transition year," with grade boundaries criteria taking a median between the record high scores of 2019 and 2021. If the exams are resumed as planned, it will increase the difficulty of the 2022 GCSE and A-level exams, and the proportion of students who score high bands on the exams will decrease, which means that the proportion of students eligible to attend top universities will be reduced. In 2022, the percentage of students with high A-level scores will drop by about 10 percent from the previous year, between the inflated value of 44 percent of students receiving high A-A* scores in 2021 and the normal value of 25 percent of students receiving high A-A* scores in 2019. Students who take the exam in 2023 will return to their pre-pandemic levels in 2019, and these students are currently at the beginning of GCSE and A-level courses, hoping that the impact of the epidemic on their studies will be reduced.

Officials hope that the two-step phase plan will successfully control the swell of scores and gradually pull back to normal levels without a sudden drop in results next summer.
