Running exams
We plan for exams to go ahead in March 2022 where it is permitted and safe. This is the fairest and most accurate way of assessing candidates’ performance.
We have developed a package of measures to support schools as they prepare for exams. See more information on our running exams pages.
School-assessed grades
If directives from authorities at district level mean exams cannot take place – for example, where schools are closed and cannot run exams – we will switch schools in that district to school-assessed grades. You can find more information on our school-assessed grades pages.
