白金汉大学的艾伦·史密瑟斯（Alan Smithers）教授表示，由于努力恢复大流行前的评分，今年可能会减少16,000个顶级A-level成绩（A*和A）。 16,000 fewer top A-level grades, A* and A, may be awarded this year due to efforts to restore pre-pandemic grading, according to Professor Alan Smithers from the University of Buckingham. 预计威尔士和北爱尔兰的降幅会“更高”。 The drop is expected to be "proportionally greater" in Wales and Northern Ireland. 去年,27.2%的英国A级参赛者获得A级或A*级,比2022年减少9.2个百分点,当时36.4%的参赛者达到最高等级。 Last year, 27.2% of UK A-level entries were awarded an A or A* grade, down by 9.2 percentage points on 2022 when 36.4% achieved the top grades.
