The 2023 A Levels and GCSEs are significant qualifications for all the individuals who studied for years to gain them. We believe the current grade distribution does not represent the effort students put in, nor accommodate for the increased mental health issues among the adolescent community in the aftermath of the pandemic (and that the 2023 A Levels were the first formal exams many students will have sat since their year 6 SATs).
