Ofqual feedback survey launched

Ofqual has launched a survey to gather feedback from school, college and training provider staff involved in producing and submitting centre assessment grades for GCSEs, AS and A levels, and those vocational and technical qualifications where this approach has been used. The feedback will support them to understand more about how centres approached this work and the experiences of those involved in its delivery.

If you are able to help Ofqual understand more about the experiences in this process, you can access the survey here: https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/BRBGXU/.

This week, Ofqual’s annual report for the period 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020 was published along with the consultation on proposed changes to the assessment of GCSEs, AS and A levels in 2021. The deadline for consultation input is 16th July 2020.
