Welcome all to the 8th Thread for this year's GCSE cohort the Corona Cohort!

Some of us have been here since I started first thread back in yr10, some will be new. Everyone has been friendly and helpful in the past. It is hoped this will continue. Going forward we intend to stay in secondary so any new threads should have 'GCSE Summer 2020 Thread # : Carry on Corona Cohort' in title just to make it easier to find.

From now on our DS/DD may go down various paths so we decided not to be exclusionary and stay right here in Secondary until HQ chuck us Grin
At this precise moment in time we are awaiting GCSE results that seem to have been produced by an algorithm that also takes very little account of Teacher Centre Assessed Grades. There is an appeal process but it was changed yesterday to include mock results and coursework, then taken down again for review.
Trying to protect our young people's mental health.during this shit show , which the government claims is their priority...when they talk about wanting students back in schools/college in September...

first ever thread

I haven’t seen them yet but I think we are confident they are the right grades for each pupil. No doubt some will still be disappointed if they don’t get what they were initially predicted

I think the highest of the two has been confirmed but what’s not clear is when they’ll be given out.

Students will be in limbo it seems for another week.

Quick question out of curiosity re the While Ranking thing - Were students ranked by subject so e.g 10 different ranking per person OR were they ranked across the whole year group (one ranking per person)?

@shimy it was by subject
