To ensure that our qualifications continue to receive recognition from employers and education providers, we have to demonstrate that learners of the same ability are awarded the same grade, regardless of when they completed their course.

For most academic qualifications Students usually receive a UMS mark (Uniform Mark Scale mark). This mark is a conversion from the raw mark that was awarded for the exam. To make sure that any differences in the difficulty of exams or assessments are taken into account when adding up your marks to give an overall grade, we convert the ‘raw’ or exam paper mark into a UMS mark. UMS grade boundaries are fixed, so they are the same for each exam session. Raw mark grade boundaries may change for each exam session.
