Mr Gove told Sky News: “The Education Secretary has been talking to the exams regulator Ofqual in order that we can find a way of recognising the immense hard work that students across the country have put in this year. He told BBC Breakfast: “I think what will happen with the Prime Minister’s announcement is people will have heard what people wanted to hear. Labour Leader Keir Starmer said there will need to be discussions over how school students are assessed this year. He tweeted: “We need an immediate national effort to ensure every school-age child, and every 16-18-year-old, has access to a device/data. “I will be working with our schools, colleges and businesses to see if we can achieve this in GM.”
