Schools were given a clear directive this year that they need to tell students “where the marks are coming from, what those marks mean and just don’t tell them their final grade or you’ll be in trouble.” As a result of this approach, there is hope that fewer appeals will happen. Despite being open about everything with your grades on report cards and exams etc., it’s bound to still have many unhappy kids who want more time for an appeal because they feel as if something went wrong during testing.
