Exam Results and Recoursing
Information for students.

The Post Results Service operates after the results have been published where a concern exists about an awarded grade which is significantly out of line with expectations. West Lothian Council schools will only submit requests on the basis of strong evidence. Requests will not be submitted on compassionate grounds for the Post Results Service. The school requires written consent from a parent/carer and pupil to authorise a post results service.
Please note a marking review can result in an increase or a decrease in the awarded grade.
The final decision to submit the Post Results Service Request will be taken by the Head Teacher.
