English Language and Literature grade boundaries

Every OCR A-level English Language and Literature boundary set we hold —11 awards across 10 series. Marks are raw marks for the whole subject, and every table links to the document it came from.

Grade A boundary over time

Shown as a percentage of the maximum mark, because the maximum changes when a board reforms a specification and raw marks stop being comparable.
