Review of Marking
Deadline: Sunday 20th September 2026
This is a post-results review of the original marking to ensure that the agreed mark scheme has been applied correctly. It is not a re-marking of the studentโs examination paper. The awarding body will have trained its reviewers to conduct reviews of marking accurately and consistently.
This service will include:
- a clerical re-check
- a review of marking as described above
It is always advisable to get a copy first (ACCESS TO SCRIPTS) as reviews rarely result in an improved overall grade and sometimes result in lower marks. Do also check the grade boundaries as it is rare for marks to go up by more than 2 or 3.
If you wish to go ahead with this service, you will need the paper codes (not the specifcation code) – these were on the Component Results sheet that you were given when you collected your results.
Charges and Fees
There is a fee payable for each paper reviewed. Charges for this service are payable in advance, BEFORE we will submit the request to the Examboard. It will be added to the student’s Scopay account once the form has been submitted. Students must therefore leave their Scopay accounts active. If the Review Of Marking results in a grade change (not just a mark change), this will be refunded and the school will be in touch to arrange this.
The cost for a review of marking is on a per paper basis and differs across the Examboards.
| AQA: | ยฃ44.85 per paper, payable in advance |
| OCR: | ยฃ67.75 per paper, payable in advance |
| WJEC/Eduqas: | ยฃ45 per paper, payable in advance |
| Pearson/EDEXL: | ยฃ50 per paper, payable in advance |

Requests must come from the Candidate. We cannot accept requests from other family members or teachers without the candidateโs consent. By completing the online form and paying exam board fee, you are giving us your consent.
Should I tell my 6th form or college that I have requested a Review of Marking?
The awarding bodies strongly advise candidates to inform their university or college choices that a review of results has been requested. By informing them, they may be able to keep the candidateโs place open until the review has been completed.
How long will a Review of Marking take?
The awarding bodies have 20 calendar days to make the review after receiving the request. Due to high volumes of post-results requests, it may take the school a little longer to forward your result to you.
How likely is it that my Grade will go up?
It is possible that your grade will improve but often grades do not change. The review of marking can highlight areas where the original marker was too harsh, or too generous. This means Candidates need to be aware of the possibility that marks can go up, stay the same, or go down. In reality, downward revisions are highly unusual.

The awarding bodies charge different fees for their post -results services. Review of Marking fees for the June 2026 exams are as follows:
- AQA – ยฃ44.85
- OCR โ ยฃ67.75
