My daughter was rewriting her UCAS statement and had to include a line for her “gap year” - “improving my undercagged A Level grades” - how sad is that? No travel plans or work, simply get a grade I deserve. #CAGsappeal @ucas_online @GavinWilliamson @ASCL_UK

Utter disgrace.Ofqual know that students of schools that followed the rules are losing out to those that have inflated grades but do nothing. I am sure they would feel different if it was their child.Change of leadership but no justice.#CAGsappeal @CommonsEd @educationgovuk

Please dont let these children down. Still no justice.#CAGsappeal
Today @CommonsEd @GavinWilliamson must answer for the injustice & unfairness he inflicted on:- 1)A’level students DOWNGRADED by their schools algorithm. 2) The external candidates he FORGOT. 3) Students with SEN/ Special Circumstances. #CAGsappeal #JusticeForResitStudents

I think @GavinWilliamson needs to resit exams. He’s totally incompetent & fails to grasp the facts. A’level students were downgraded to fit schools historical data. Students didn’t get A grade because school ran out of A’s , so awarded B. Unjust & unfair! #CAGsappeal @JuliaHB1

@ASCL_UK @RealGeoffBarton Shows what confidence @GavinWilliamson has in your members when he says he won’t allow schools who heavily moderated to appeal as he would expect all schools to appeal to get increases no matter what moderation or lack of they carried out! #CAGsappeal

"The call for a delay of a month in A levels and GCSEs in 2021 is a sticking plaster, not a solution": terrific blog from former @ASCL_UK General Secretary @johndunford, with a 10-point plan for exams and assessment in 2021: buff.ly/3hU0btq

@halfon4harlowMP You didnt go far enough to push Ofqual to solve the pending issues of low CAGs, no appeals, resits. Pl pl push them now. Suffering goes on for quiet a few. WHY punish a few. As you asked, why a Head cant appeal for low CAGs. @CommonsEd

If any of their children had been mistreated by this unjust system they'd be the first one to speak up just like so many parents of the affected students have. At the end of the day it's about whether you truly care or not. Unfortunately,she doesn't.#CAGsappeal #HonourTheOffer

Just rectify the injustice of multiple tier results already! Deadline for uni applications fast approaching! Why are teachers, heads, ministers and accountants (@NickGibbUK) not appreciating the gravity of the situation??? Issue of minority still needs to be fixed!! #CAGsappeal

Moreover, we should fight this & not give up, schools & @ofqual are still hoping this will go away. #HonourTheOffer, #CAGsappeal & address the issues of private students & any one who suffered injustice by @ofqual lacking basic rational reasoning, I m puzzled how they got us here
Unjust, sadly gov & @ofqual gave enormous power to teachers, without checks and balances or a #CAGsappeal, teachers are humans & bias is a fact. One achievement we should not take away from @ofqual is them reaching a new height of incompetence, they even forgot about 20k students

I'm also Y13 tutor, so can help on speaking to Uni admissions office and getting advice from UCAS. I'm sure we could help.

You can't deny students the right to a fair appeal! CAGs are still subject to changes made by the demands of @ofqual. Now do the right thing #saveourchildren #CAGSappeal #RETWEEET

Where are all the teachers and Heads that signed off these grades? Shame on you all - all of you. Absolutely disgraceful. #HonourTheOffer #CAGsappeal @tes @GavinWilliamson @BorisJohnson @SchoolsWeek @ofqual @LBC @educationgovuk

My future is left undecided because I didn't cheat and because I wasn't my teacher's favourite. What does that show the youth of today? What does that show our younger siblings? What does that teach tomorrow's students? #ALevels2020 #CAGsappeal #HonourTheOffer
