GCSE students will receive their results on August 19, with millions hoping to move on to the next stage of their education. While the pandemic rages on, they have had little opportunity to attend school, but they should still have the chance to go to college or an apprenticeship this year. But some students may remain apprehensive about the day, given the recent Government controversy.

What time will GCSE results come out?

Every GCSE pupil will get their results on the morning of August 20 this year.

While the results come on the same day for everyone, students may not receive them at the same time.

The coronavirus pandemic has altered logistics of the day, however.

In an official statement, he said the new method would provide “certainty and reassurance” to students in the UK.

Mr Williamson said: “We worked with Ofqual to construct the fairest possible model, but it is clear that the process of allocating grades has resulted in more significant inconsistencies than can be resolved through an appeals process.

“We now believe it is better to offer young people and parents certainty by moving to teacher assessed grades for both A and AS level and GCSE results.

“I am sorry for the distress this has caused young people and their parents but hope this announcement will now provide the certainty and reassurance they deserve.”
