A Level results day is Thursday 13 August 2020 – this is for all Level 3 qualifications (AS, A Level, BTEC, Cambridge Technicals, WJEC Level 3 diplomas, etc.)
This year, students from The Holgate Academy and National Church of England Academy will be collecting their results from Hucknall Sixth Form Centre. To maintain social distancing, we are issuing results at set times and a one-way system will be in place with a clearly marked queuing system.
Students who are connected to Queen Elizabeth’s Academy will collect their sites from the academy itself. Year 13 and year 12 can pick up their A/AS results up from the academy on Thursday morning – year 13 between 8.30 – 9.30am and year 12 between 9.30 -10.30am. You should make your way to the Panel Room, following our one-way system and maintaining social distancing at all times.
How grades have been awarded
Step 1 – Along with other schools and colleges in the country, the academy submitted centre assessed grades for students in each of their subjects. These are the grades we felt students would have achieved had they sat the exams. We also submitted a rank order for students in each subject based on how they were expected to perform. A range of assessment information was considered for every student such as coursework, mock exams, general tracking records and performance throughout the course to determine student grades and ranking.
Step 2 – Exam boards checked the submitted grades for consistency using a model developed with regulators. They have the final say on grades, and therefore award the grade they feel is appropriate. They have worked hard to ensure that all grades for all schools and colleges have been awarded fairly, making sure they are in line with previous national results in each subject, how well the academy has performed in recent years and how well this year’s students have performed at GCSE.
