Appeals 2023 overview

When you receive your results, if you’re concerned about a grade you can consider appealing against it.

Appeals 2023 is a free service and is available from results day (Tuesday 8 August).

You can appeal or, if you prefer, you can ask your parent, carer, school, college or training provider to appeal for you.

If you are thinking about appealing, you should discuss it with your teacher, lecturer or another member of staff to see whether it is in your best interests. However, you have
the final decision on whether to appeal.

For those students who wish for the College to submit an Appeal on their behalf, please contact your Curriculum Quality Leader or quality@wcs.ac.uk by the stated SQA deadlines.

The deadlines for the College appealing on your behalf are as follows:

  • Priority appeals – 5 pm on Monday 21 August
  • All other appeals – 5 pm on Friday 1 September
