Our examiners go through a robust standardisation process and we have significant processes in place to ensure the quality and consistency of our marking. Our live papers (and our specimen papers and secure mock papers) go through a rigorous ten-step process to ensure their reliability and validity. However, we would counsel significant caution when using ‘grade boundaries’ created off the back of mock assessments. We do appreciate the valuable support that other organisations provide to our centres, especially during this critical and uncertain reform phase. We can understand why these organisations, such as subject associations are suggesting where boundaries might lie, but it is important to understand that these are entirely unofficial and there is no guarantee how accurate they will prove to be.
