CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations and well done to all “A” Level students and teachers for another fine set of results. And if you didn’t do as well as you would have liked, don’t be disheartened there will still be plenty of opportunities for you to achieve.
The Liberal Democrats today called for an independent review of standards. Results show that more than one in four UK A-level entries were awarded the top A grade this year. Girls continued to outperform boys in every major subject except for modern foreign languages and further maths. About 310,000 candidates have been getting their individual results.
“It isn’t fair that students should have to defend themselves against commentators carping on about a decline in standards. The only way to end this annual devaluing of students’ efforts is to have an independent review. Universities, employers and the teaching profession should come together to agree what they expect a 21st century A-level to deliver.”
