Shrewsbury School Headmaster Discusses Exam Results on National Radio

Headmaster, Leo Winkley, was interviewed on 17th August 2020 on LBC Radio regarding the sector's views on the exam results situation.

Interviewed live on air by Shelagh Fogarty, Mr Winkley stated that “teachers and pupils are all in this together, no matter the type of school".

He concluded by saying that “The only next logical step would be to allow pupils to receive the teacher assessed grades, which were much more carefully produced and much more carefully moderated than mock exam results".

The interview was conducted in the early afternoon of the 17th August, prior to the Government's announcement that A-level students and GCSE pupils would be awarded their centre assessed grades (CAGs), rather than the grades calculated by the official exam regulator Ofqual using an algorithm.
