繼量化寬鬆後，再新現一個名詞，叫量化派A。
FT剛出了一份報道幾有趣，分享下。
如果CPI升5%叫通脹勁的話，睇下英國「派Grade通脹」有幾利害。今年獲派A*及A Grade的比例接近45%，較2019年的25.5%升足廿個百份點。
原因，公開考試取消，變成由老師根據「一籃子」因素決定學生值咩Garde。
調查報道亦發現，私立學校學生獲A及A*比重達七成，公立學校就不足四成。
//Top grades at A-level have reached a record high this year, after exams were cancelled and replaced with teacher assessments for a second year in a row.
On Tuesday, the Joint Council for Qualifications, the exam board body, said the number of A and A* grades given reached 44.8 per cent in England, Wales and Northern Ireland — up from 25.5 per cent in 2019.
Because grades were decided by teachers on the basis of a “basket of evidence”, which demonstrated the maximum potential of each student, this effectively did away with fixed grade boundaries that before the pandemic put limits on the number of top marks that could be awarded.
The decision, which led to a ballooning in top grades, was taken after an outcry in 2020 over a computer-based approach designed to keep results in line with previous years, leading to manifest injustices, particularly in schools in more disadvantaged areas.//
