Details

In January 2021 the government confirmed that summer 2021 assessments could not go ahead as planned due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The decision was taken that students were to be awarded grades for general qualifications (mainly GCSEs, AS, and A levels) and many vocational and technical qualifications (for example, BTECs and applied generals) using teacher judgements. The intention was that these teacher assessed grades (TAGs) were to be based on evidence produced by the students that could be externally quality assured. Only content that a centre had been able to teach was to be assessed, and a variety of types of evidence could be used to support the holistic judgement centres were asked to make.

To support evaluation of the effectiveness and impact of the assessment arrangements in 2021 and to inform contingency planning for 2022, we carried out a project consisting of surveys and interviews of teaching staff involved in determining TAGs, and students receiving TAGs.
