Call for comment on GCSE reforms

Ofqual logo

Ofqual has launched a consultation on their proposed changes to the current GCSE specifications in England

The consultation explains how Ofqual intends to implement the following reforms: 

  • Making all GCSEs linear, with assessment solely at the end of the course 
  • Removing the potential for the resitting of units and restricting the availability of assessments to the summer only 
  • Ensuring that greater account is taken of spelling, punctuation and grammar in GCSE qualifications.
