Grades of 7 and above down three percentage points, in line with government plans to tackle grade inflation
The proportion of top grades among the GCSE results for 16-year-olds in England has fallen since last year, with the overall pass rate also down, after pupils whose education has been disrupted by the pandemic sat the first examinations in three years.
Top grades of 7 and above – equivalent to A and A* – were down three percentage points this summer, in line with government plans to tackle grade inflation over the last two years, and bring results gradually down to pre-pandemic levels.
