How will grades be awarded in summer 2021 for learners studying Qualifications Wales approved GCSE, AS and A levels?
The Welsh Government has announced that:
- Learners undertaking GCSE, AS and A levels approved by Qualifications Wales will have their qualifications awarded through a Centre-Determined Grade model. This means that their grades will be determined by their school or college based on an assessment of the learner’s work
- Deadlines and controls for Non-examination assessment (NEA) are being removed, however centres are encouraged to undertake some NEA to build learners’ learning and skills.
- WJEC will support centres to develop and deliver internal quality assurances processes.
