Appealing against your GCSE or A level results in summer 2026

Written by

in

AS level, A level and T Level results in summer 2026 will be published on Thursday 13th August. GCSE results will be published on Thursday 20th August. You will have the right to appeal your grades if you want to.

Requests to review marking must be made by centres – that is, by your school or college. Clerical checks and reviews of marking can be requested from results day.

You may also request a return of A level papers from results day to help you and your school or college decide whether to proceed with a review of marking.

The deadline for a priority review of A level marking is Thursday August 20th.

The 24th September is the final deadline for requesting a return of A level and GCSE papers, and to request a review of results for both A levels and GCSEs.

The full JCQ guidance on post results services, including remarks is here.

You might be waiting on a university place that depends on certain grades and you should inform your university firm choice if you are requesting a review. UCAS have provided full guidance on exam review and appeals where this is the case.

Many students look at the possibility of retaking while waiting for the outcome of their marking reviews. Please contact cife for a free consultation about your options.
