Dd got a 5-6 on her science results paper.
She collected her certificates last week and her science result is 7-6.
We've had nothing to say it was being re-marked so can't quite work out what has happened.
She doesn't want to ask in case they change it back to the first mark!

I dunno but I'd just keep quiet. You've been given her official certificate. It's much more likely the mistake was with the original mark, not the official certificate

7-6 makes more sense as the higher of the grades is usually listed 1st.

This - I don't think you can actually be awarded a "5-6". Which suggests her first grade was wrongly recorded somehow.

Could it have been moderated?

Possibly, but I thought they would have let us know?
