GCSEs Are Changing
The way GCSEs are graded is changing. The alphabetised G to A* system is being phased out and replaced with a numerical grade that ranges from one to nine, with nine being higher than an A*.
This system means that there is greater differentiation between the highest achieving students. You can find the full table below…
