National Curriculum UpdateNational Curriculum Update
The Department for Education has decided to delay
the pre-consultation phase until the new National
Curriculum Programmes of Study have been
developed to a more advanced stage. The overall
timeline for the National Curriculum Review and its
implementation remains the same, with formal
consultation early next year.

GCSE ConsultationGCSE Consultation All pupils starting GCSE courses from September 2012, will be
assessed with end of course exams (certification in 2014)
There are three key changes being proposed: Making all GCSE assessment linear to ensure that GCSE
examinations are taken at the end of the course
Restricting the availability of examinations to the summer only, removing the potential for resitting units. There will only be retake opportunities in November for GCSEs in English, English Language and Mathematics.
Awarding additional marks for Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar for GCSEs in English Literature, Geography, History and Religious Studies.
