Year 11 student & Parental Email 03.04.20

Dear Year 11 students and Parents/Guardians,

Since the Secretary of State for Education, Gavin Williamson, announced that the 2020 exam series in England would be cancelled to help fight the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19), Ofqual have worked at speed to develop a process, which fairly recognises students’ work and makes sure they get their grades in time to progress.

You will find details about how GCSEs will be awarded this summer by following this link

An open letter to students who were expecting to be taking their exams this summer is attached.

I wish to reassure you that we will treat our students fairly and completely adhere to Ofqual and awarding body guidance. 

Yours faithfully,

Mrs Rachel McGowan

Head Teacher
Plashet School
