The new T Level exam could be remarked after unexpectedly “damning” results sparked an outcry among students and teachers across England.
NCFE, the awarding body for T Levels – the vocational equivalent of A levels – is “actively exploring the situation” after controversial results threatened to undermine the new qualification.
Unexpectedly large numbers of students received D, E and U grades in their first-year heath and science exams despite performing well in their mocks, and NCFE is now “looking at multiple options” as it considers how to respond.
MPs will also meet next week to discuss possible “formal action” on the matter including demanding for the results to be regraded and for the awarding body to issue an apology.
