Pupils unhappy with their estimated grades have been approaching law firms to help navigate the ”narrow” appeals process for GCSE and A-levels.
Lawyers have told The Independent pupils are seeking advice after feeling let down by grades their teachers estimated after exams were cancelled this year over coronavirus.

Student protests followed results day, which saw nearly 40 per cent of A-levels downgraded in a controversial moderation process.
