‘We will be regrading BTECs to address concerns about unfairness in relation to A-levels and GCSEs and ensure no BTEC student is disadvantaged.’

‘For some young people to find out less than a day in advance that they will not be receiving their grades tomorrow is utterly disgraceful. ‘This repeated chaos is simply no way to run a country.
