will force teachers and schools to do it first. how on earth can young people have confidence in the system when the first minister s words don t match reality? first minister. what douglas ross is trying to suggest happens is simply not the case. we ve already set out that awards this year are based on teacherjudgements. teachers arrive at those judgements by looking at the attainment, the work the pupils have done. there are no past results or algorithms that dictate what an individual learner s grade will be. this sqa crisis has all - the hallmarks of last year s crisis the use of historical data and moderation, - a non functioning appealsj process and a government refusing to listen and engage. young people across scotland have had the hardest year- of their lives. you ve had a year to develop a system that worked - but there are nowjust days - to improve the flawed process. so we will continue to look at all of this. hard lessons have been learned from last year.
