Post Results – June 2024

There are several different types of post-results services available to students, please see a summary of services and procedures below:

It is important to note that grades can go down as well as up and there are costs attached to these services. However, if there is a grade change you will receive a full refund.

JCQ Post Results Services 2024

ATS - Access to Scripts

The exam board will supply a copy of your marked exam script/paper.  This can be helpful for you to look at to see if it is worth applying for any other post-results services.

Service 1 - Clerical Re-Check

A post-results service to check all the clerical procedures were carried out, such as all pages were marked, all marks were counted, recorded and added up correctly and the result matches the marks on the paper.

Service 2 - Review of Marking

This is a post-results review of the original marking to ensure that the mark scheme has been applied correctly and that no marking errors have occurred. 

Please note that reviewers will not re-mark the script.  They will only act to correct any errors identified in the original marking. 

There are three possible outcomes from a review:  

• Your original mark is lowered, so your final grade may be lower than the original grade you received.  
• Your original mark is confirmed as correct, so there is no change to your grade.  
• Your original mark is raised, so your final grade may be higher than the original grade you received.

Service 2P - Priority Review of Marking – Year 13 only

If you are a Year 13 student and have a university place waiting on the result it is possible to request a priority review of marking with the exam board.  
For the priority service there will be additional charges.

Requesting a Post- Results service

The charges and deadlines for each service will be provided with your exam results and are also available HERE.

It is important to remember that the cost for each service is for each paper and not for the whole qualification.  For example, GCSE English Language consists of two papers, each paper is a separate enquiry and therefore has a separate cost. 

If you decide that you want to request a post-results service please ensure that you follow the steps detailed below:

• Complete the form that was included with your exam results (a copy of this is also HERE).  Most of the information you need is on the provisional statement of results you received on results day. 
• Ensure you complete every section including the box giving your consent, without this we cannot process your application. 
• Calculate the total cost payable for the post-result service and make payment by BACS (the bank details are on the forms you were given with your results). Your application cannot be processed until you have made your payment. 
• Email your completed application to vxh@leventhorpe.net where we will check that we have received your payment and that the form has been completed accurately. You will then be sent an acknowledgement email and your application will be sent to the appropriate awarding body. Requests received after the respective closing dates (listed below) will not be accepted.
• Once we have received the outcome of the post-results service you have requested, we will forward this on to you at the email address you have provided. If you are moving on from Leventhorpe, we will request that you include an alternative contact e-mail address other than your school e-mail.
