A close and continued relationship with students also stood staff in good stead to ensure teacher assessed grades were rigorous and accurate.
Mr Allen said it was stated in the national news that teacher assessment of pupils was a better and more "accurate" way of awarding grades than formal exams, the government's qualification regulator had said.
Simon Lebus, the interim head of Ofqual said having teachers grade their pupils on work throughout the year would give a more "holistic judgement" rather than the "snapshot" provided by an exam.
