- View your students’ scripts using our free access to scripts service. NB. This is available only for Paper 1
- Log in to ResultsPlus to see how your students have performed on every question and compare their performance to the national average. For Paper 2 we will provide more detailed data via your exams officer - please contact them to access this 'Item Level Mark Breakdown'.
- If you are still unhappy with your students' results, you may apply for a review of marking via our post-results services.
