Kate Green MP, Labour’s Shadow Secretary of State for Education, commenting on reports that Level 1 and 2 BTEC grades will not be given out tomorrow, said: 

“This latest chaos is totally unacceptable. For some young people to find out less than a day in advance that they will not be receiving their grades tomorrow is utterly disgraceful.

“Gavin Williamson and the Department for Education should have had a grip of this situation days ago. It’s appalling that thousands of young people should face further confusion and uncertainty because of the government’s incompetence .

“This repeated chaos is simply no way to run a country. The government must urgently set a clear deadline for every young person to receive their grades.”
