2017/18 GCSE 9-1 Grading For the first award only of all new GCSEs w are proposing a greater reliance on statistical predictions than in subsequent years. Broadly the same proportion of students will achieve a grade 4 and above as currently achieve a grade C and above in the subject. Broadly the same proportion of students will achieve a grade 7 and above as currently achieve a grade A and above in the subject. Broadly the same proportion of students will achieve a grade 1 and above as currently achieve a grade G and above. Grades 2, 3, 5 and 6 will be awarded arithmetically so that the grade boundaries are equally spaced in terms of marks from neighbouring grades. Grade 5 will be positioned in the top third of the marks for a current grade C and the bottom third of the marks for a current grade B.

2017/18 GCSE 9-1 Grading 2 For the first award only of all new GCSEs: Across all subjects (as opposed to within each individual subject) close to 20 per cent of those awarded a grade 7 or above will be awarded a grade 9 (the ‘tailored approach’). Percentage of those achieving at least grade 7 who should be awarded grade 9 = 7% + 0.5*(percentage of candidates awarded grade 7 or above) Grade 8 will still be awarded arithmetically so that the grade boundary is equally spaced in terms of marks from the grade 7 and 9 boundaries.

2017/18 GCSE 9-1 Grading 3 The first award of all new GCSEs will be based primarily on statistical predictions with examiner judgement playing a secondary role. The grade standard established in the first award will be carried forward in the second and subsequent years. The same approach will be used for the first awards of grades 1 to 7 in all new GCSEs as has already been confirmed for new GCSEs in English language, English literature and maths. The ‘tailored approach’ will be used to set standards for grades 8 and 9 in all new GCSEs in the first year they are awarded, including English language, English literature and maths. The standard established in the first award for grades 8 and 9 will be carried forward in the second and subsequent years.
