Thanks Aiden! So pleased that you are interested in this role! Make sure you send your application form to futureme@gloucestershire.gov.uk as I currently can't see your email in our inbox. Thank you, Martha

@@futureme7795 I'm waiting on one of my references to confirm their contact details first. I'll email my application form across as soon as possible.

Thank you very much :)

Same here :((( just saw the video Hopefully they recruit again in the foreseeable future

Hi Aaliyah, thank you for your comment. Unfortunately the deadline has now passed for this recruitment, however, we are hoping to be able to recruit again in the not too distant future. Please make sure you keep an eye out for upcoming opportunities :) Many Thanks.

Thank you, Glendon :)

Hi Courtney, Thank you for your message. Future Me Gloucestershire is ran on behalf of Gloucestershire County Council, so we are based in the offices at Shire Hall in Gloucester. However, for the time being we are all working from home and we expect this to be the case for the foreseeable future. Yes of course, the role is very flexible and if you were to be successful with your application should you decide to apply, we will work around your schedule wherever possible. Many thanks.

Hi Lily, Thank you for getting in touch. Unfortunately, you do have to be 16 to apply to become a Future Me Ambassador. However, all being well, we are hoping that we might be able to recruit again in the not too distant future, so please keep a close eye out for any more Ambassador related news over the coming months. Many thanks.

Hi Nik, the results day for A Levels will be on the 13th of August 2020 as originally planned. However, as far as we are currently aware, it is still unknown at this stage whether you will be able to go in to collect your results on results day or whether they will all be delivered to your address by post only. Based on the most recent government advice, it seems as though some children might be able to go back into schools just before the end of the summer term and some public places might be able to re-open in July, BUT this is only if the research suggests it is safe to do so. This means that you might be able to go in to collect your results come August (provided the government say it is safe to do so), but at this stage, it is too early to be able to say what will happen for definite. :)

Hi Max, thank you for your comment. The guidance states that schools and colleges should take into account the full range of available evidence when they grade students - including non-exam assessment; the results of any homework assignments or mock exams; and any other records of student performance over the course of study. Therefore, if you were for example working towards an A grade and all of your assessments, assignments, coursework and mock exam results clearly demonstrated this, then teachers will use all of this as evidence to support the decision they make on what grade they believe best represents what you would have achieved this year if exams had gone ahead. However, if you were to end up in a situation where you received a grade that you strongly disagreed with, then you have the opportunity to make use of the appeals process, or the opportunity to sit any relevant examinations in Autumn or in Summer 2021 as the guidance mentions. It's important to remember that some information in the current Ofqual guidance may change depending on how long we are all unable to go about our normal daily lives, however, we will do our best to keep everyone updated if this is the case. Good luck if you are receiving results this summer! :)

@@futureme7795 Thank you for the informative reply and video

Hi Nik, I could understand why some people may be concerned about a bias, however, as stated in the guide, all schools and colleges have been asked to use their professional experience to make a fair and objective judgement of the grade they believe any student would have achieved had exams gone ahead. Schools and Colleges will also not be sharing provisional grades, nor rank orders, with any students or parents and carers, which would also help to eliminate any potential bias. Good luck if you are receiving any results this summer! :)
