Teachers in England will be asked to decide the grades they think pupils would have achieved in cancelled GCSE and A-level exams.
This will be used by exam boards to award results – along with a ranking order by ability of each pupil in a school, also to be sent in by teachers, by 29 May.
The grades could be changed if schools seem too generous or harsh, and to make the overall distribution of grades consistent with other years.

All exams have been cancelled because of the coronavirus crisis.
Students who are unhappy with their grades will have the chance to sit the exams as soon as reasonably possible after schools reopen – or in the summer of 2021.
