Details

If a school or college believes an error has occurred in the marking or moderation of a student’s exam paper or coursework it can request a review from the exam board. All types of review of exam marking relate to an individual paper completed by an individual student. 

This page explains who can request a review, what types of review are available, and what to do if you remain dissatisfied with the outcome.
