There is a lot of talk about modifications to GCSEs and A levels? This is all under the government’s control. But what about iGCSEs and IB that a lot of children take in this country?

The first question mark is a typo. Oops.

iGCSE's will I suspect not make any announcements until after GCSE announcements. This year it took Cambridge 4 days after the announcement GCSE's weren't taking place to scrap exams and in those 4 days they posted announcements that they would go ahead where possible despite the fact that many students internationally had already been out of school for some weeks at that point. Edexcel took 5 days. If I was in control of a schools decision on which boards to use in the future I would very much look at how boards behaved at this time. It was a needlessly stressful time for affected schools, students and families.
