Dear Jennette

You make really important points about the potential exam injustice this year’s A-level students are facing — through no fault of their own.

Ofqual have tried to adapt as best they can in unprecedented circumstances. But we know the work of BAME and poorer students is regularly underestimated. Making it easier for schools to appeal is one thing, but the support must be there to help disadvantaged students who have been unfairly penalised.
