INTERVIEW: Richard Wijeratne and Mike Mills from XIC on Exams

Xabia International College director Richard Wijeratne and head of secondary Mike Mills have been in the BayRadio Studio 1 with Moody to discuss GCSE and A Level exam results.

Richard Wijeratne said algorithms designed to grade students sitting UK examinations created conditions that were ‘unfair in the extreme’ to certain students.

Mike Mills said some GCSE students had suddenly been pushed four grades lowers than expected.

They said it was time now to ‘look forwards not backwards’ – especially as 100% of XIC students still managed to reach their 1st choice university, and 100% passed their GCSEs.
