Exam Arrangements 2021

On February 25th 2021 the Department for Education confirmed arrangements for exam grades in Summer 2021 stating "There will be a clear and accessible route for private candidates to work with a centre to receive a grade this year, at the same time as other candidates. Exam boards will provide centres with clear guidance on the evidence they can use to assess a private candidate. A list of available centres will be published shortly and, we are working with the sector to ensure there are sufficient centres available and at a similar cost to a normal year." It can be seen that this depends entirely on the exam centre going the extra mile.

At the same time, Ofqual began a further short-run technical consultation on the precise implementation of the new policy proposals, which closes on March 11th 2021. A summary of the main points for private candidates can be found on my exams page
