Cambridge Technicals – results delivered on time
17 August 2023
OCR Cambridge Technicals results have been delivered to students on time. That’s almost 33,000 students receiving 36,000 Level 3 results on or before 17 August – every student who is entitled to receive a result today.
Congratulations to all Cambridge Technicals students for their hard work and important achievements.
There are no late results for OCR Cambridge Technicals students who are eligible to receive them this year. There has been no repeat of last year’s delays.
New checkpoints, effective collaboration
This year we introduced a number of additional measures, including new checkpoints, to ensure schools and colleges shared all the necessary information for students to receive their qualifications on time.
We are grateful to the many teachers, tutors, exams officers, schools and colleges who enabled the system to work so well this year.
Supporting all students
In a very small number of cases, schools or colleges claimed for a unit exceptionally late, missing deadlines, leaving students’ work unsubmitted. Having resolved most of these cases ahead of results day, fewer than 10 students are still affected. OCR is working hard to ensure the outstanding work is assessed so students receive their results as quickly as possible.
As in any year, some students will not receive Cambridge Technicals Level 3 qualifications today because they failed a unit or did not complete enough units.
OCR has already contacted these students’ schools and colleges to ensure they understand why they have not received a result and what they can do about it.
In some instances, students have an opportunity to receive a result for a smaller qualification if they wish. Any student who is in this situation should speak to their school or college, which will already have received relevant information from OCR.
