GCSE results were published on 26 August 2022. The way the data are presented makes it difficult to summarize college results but there are some clear trends in entries and results.

This was the first summer series where students took externally set and marked public exams since 2019 and Ofqual’s aim was to achieve a grade profile broadly at the mid-point between 2019 and 2021 (the ‘high point’ of centre-assessed grades). Grade boundaries are set based on the performance of the Year 11 cohort and then applied consistently for all candidates, including post-16.
