It comes after Steve Chalke, founder of the Oasis Academy Trust, called for this week’s GCSE results day to be postponed to ensure the Government and the exams regulator did not make the same mistakes as they did with A-levels.
Mr Chalke told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: “The pastoral disaster for young people, that is the biggest thing.
“So now is the time to stop, to pause, to reflect.”
“I think there should be an apology for the A-levels, a humble apology, and I think that there should be a delay around the GCSEs because it is better to reflect on what has happened.”
