Rejected petition Lower OCR computer science GCSE grade boundaries because of leaked coursework.
I am 16 and am currently in my GCSE stage of my life just like millions of other students around the country. The OCR board for GCSE's recently had their computer science GCSE coursework leak out onto the internet causing it be erased from the GCSE course. Grade boundaries should be lowered.
More details
The result of this action caused havoc within the GCSE community in terms of the computer science GCSE concerning the OCR board and how this could potentially affect candidates results on the Thursday 23rd August 2018. The leaked coursework should provide a cause of action to lower the grade boundaries for the OCR computer science GCSE course. Please consider this as it will help average out grade boundaries and more realistic results will arise which candidates will be able to appreciate.
