The process initiates with educational institutions evaluating student performance based on diverse evidence such as mock exams, classwork, homework, and non-exam assessments to establish center assessment grades and rank orders. Subsequently, exam boards apply a rigorous statistical standardization model developed with Ofqual, which accounts for historical school performance, prior student attainment, and national trends. This dual-phase approach ensures that grade distributions remain consistent and equitable across different institutions by adjusting overly generous or severe teacher assessments to align with predicted statistical outcomes. The document serves as a comprehensive guide for understanding how student qualifications were determined during this specific academic period, balancing professional school assessment with standardized national moderation protocols.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/process-for-awarding-gcses-as-and-a-levels-summer-2020-overview/623842/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/process-for-awarding-gcses-as-and-a-levels-summer-2020-overview/623842.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Alexandar","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-06","2026-10-20",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":29},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What factors are considered in the center assessment grade?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"Grades are based on cumulative evidence including non-exam assessment work, classwork, homework, and performance in mock examinations.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"How does the statistical standardization process work?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"Exam boards adjust grades by comparing them against historical national subject results, recent school performance, and the prior attainment levels of students in the current cohort.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"Why might a school's submitted grades be adjusted?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"Grades are adjusted to ensure fairness; if the submitted results appear statistically too generous or too severe compared to historical trends, they are moved down or up to align with the statistical model.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},623842,1793138356,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":19,"category_name":20,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":29,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":8,"language":139,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":140,"faqs":141,"seo_title":142,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":143,"read_time":81,"preview_page_count":4},962090768658,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_6f874abed73319feea01a86fa6f0fab8","Process for awarding GCSEs, AS and A levels summer 2020  \nStep 1-School or college considers and submits centre assessment grade and rank order information  \nFor each student for each subject  \nCentre assessment grade based on evidence of performance  \nFor example  \nA level geography  \nAny non-exam assessment work  \nClasswork  \nHomework  \nMock exams  \nOther relevant evidence  \nPosition in rank order of students on that grade  \nGrade A Grade B  \nStep 2-Exam boards standardise grades using statistical model developed with Ofqual  \nExam Board  \nStatistical standardisation  \nWhat results might the school or college be most likely to achieve given the following?
