Details

This document is part of a suite of documents which sets out the regulatory requirements for awarding organisations offering GCSE qualifications (graded from 9 to 1).

We have developed these requirements with the intention that GCSE qualifications (graded from 9 to 1) should fulfil the following purposes, to provide:

• evidence of students’ achievements against demanding and fulfilling content;
• a strong foundation for further academic and vocational study and for employment; and
• (if required) a basis for schools and colleges to be held accountable for the performance of all of their students.

Read the associated GCSE subject-level guidance for French, German and Spanish to understand how to comply with these rules.
