  • Description: Principals losing faith in examiners as record number of grades are corrected A RECORD 77,000 GCSE and A-level grades were corrected after challenges were submitted by schools and colleges in 2014. At the end of a five-week investigation, Ofqual's chief regulator Glenys Stacey wrote to Mark Dawe, OCR's chief executive at the time, revealing that she had been close to pursuing legal action after OCR almost failed to deliver GCSE and A-level results on time. Writing in TES last year, Mary Bousted, general secretary of the ATL, said that schools and colleges had "lost faith in the ability of exam boards to mark exam papers accurately" after the number of GCSE and A-level papers sent for re-marking rose by 48 per cent.
