Education committee warns lack of guidance may cause inconsistencies and rampant grade inflation
A lack of government guidance over this year’s A-level and GCSE awards in England risks creating a “wild west” of inconsistent decisions and rampant grade inflation, MPs have warned.
In a letter to the education secretary, the Commons education select committee demanded answers to a range of issues within the next three weeks, telling Gavin Williamson “we have a real fear that the package of measures being proposed, as it stands, risks much higher grade inflation happening this summer”.
