GCSE results 2022: How to appeal your CCEA grade

Thousands of students in Northern Ireland received their GCSE results on Thursday.

If you have a question about your Summer 2022 results, CCEA have explained what you can do.

Your school or college may request one of CCEA’s Post-Results Services on your behalf. Your first point of contact should be your school or college for advice and guidance.

Clerical Re-check

CCEA will check whether there were any administrative errors or if procedures were missed in marking your examination paper.

Review of Marking

A CCEA Senior Examiner will review the marking of an externally assessed component/unit. This includes a clerical re-check and a breakdown of marks for that component/unit.

Access to Scripts

Your school can request a copy of your exam paper. (Note that if CCEA’s quality assurance review identifies an error before CCEA issues a copy of your paper, this may result in a change of mark.)

Appeals

If you are unhappy with the outcome of Post-Results Services, your school or college can submit an appeal to CCEA. An appeal must come from your school’s Examinations Officer, as they are best informed to arrange an appeal on behalf of their students. This is normal practice for all awarding organisations. If an appeal is requested following a review, this service is free of charge. Your grade could go up, go down or stay the same following an appeal.
