Consultation description

Over the next decade, we are seeking to introduce the Advanced British Standard (ABS), a new Baccalaureate-style qualification framework for 16 to 19 year-olds, which will increase teaching time, require the study of maths and English to 18 and ensure students study a greater breadth of subjects.

The consultation document sets out proposals on the way the ABS could work. We are seeking your views to help us to continue developing our approach for the ABS and how it is delivered.

The consultation document is also accompanied by a summary, the interim equalities impact assessment and the analytical annex.
