The new numerical grading system is to be used for students taking GCSE exams from summer 2017. In an effort to increase standards in schools, a ‘good pass’ has been set at a grade 5 or above in English and Maths – slightly higher than a C in the current lettered grading system. The table below shows how the grades compare.
| New grade from 2017 | U | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | |
| Current lettered grade | U | G | F | E | D | C | B | A | A* | ||
