By what magic power does Ofqual know how well GCSE and A-level candidates are going to perform next summer?
Do you remember any kind of debate about controlling those marks by quota? Yet here we are.
Political prisoner, activist, journalist, hymn-writer, emerging think tanker, aspiring novelist, "tribal elder", parliamentary candidate for North West Durham, Shadow Leader of the Opposition, "Speedboat", "The Cockroach", banned from Twitter so officially more dangerous than the Taliban, eagerly awaiting the second (or possibly third) attempt to murder me.
How do you think they're going to do it?
ReplyDeleteThey are keen on following the given school's past performance, and this summer the private schools seized the opportunity to give top marks to everyone. Anyone could have done that, but only they had the sheer sense of their own entitlement to do it. So they will be all right next summer, anyway.
