A Level Music students around the UK are celebrating today as a bumper crop of results come in, with provisional data showing that 54.8 per cent of students achieved A* and A grades.
Due to the disruption of the pandemic, this year’s grades have been determined by teachers, who based their decisions on informal assessment, guidance from exam boards, and frameworks developed by individual schools.
Statistics from the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ) show that 23.7 per cent of A Level Music students achieved A* grades, compared to 13.3 per cent in 2020, and 31.1 per cent were awarded A grades, compared to 27.8 per cent last year.
