Create a taskforce to establish a fair process for 2021 university candidates
Create a taskforce involving teachers, specialists, OFQUAL, universities, exam boards to:
a) Make good use of available time before next year.
b) Develop, model, impact analyse and verify fair approaches to
account for the extreme impact on current Y12 students
c) Communicate proposals early
Students sitting exams in 2021 face a triple whammy:
a) They had unequal access to education during 2020, creating even greater inequality
b) They will be applying for places based on examination results, against those who did not run that gauntlet, face that pressure, triumph over the foibles of exam periods.
c) Some of next year’s places have already been guaranteed to those who missed out this year because of the handling at a national level so there are fewer places to compete for.
