Question to the Wales Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what recent discussions he has had with the Secretary of State and the Cabinet Secretary for Education in the Welsh Government on the divergence of GCSE grading schemes between Wales and England.
This question was answered on 24th October 2017
As you are aware, education is devolved to the Welsh Government. Following changes to GCSEs in both England and Wales, I am keen to ensure that any differences between the two education systems do not negatively affect potential opportunities for students in Wales. As such, I am happy to work with the Welsh Government as and when is appropriate.
