Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what the estimated per-pupil cost was of GCSE re-sits in state schools for the latest period for which figures are available.

The information requested is not held by the Department for Education. Each Awarding Organisation publishes details of their fees for re-sits [1].

In addition to Awarding Organisations fees, exam centres can apply their own administration costs to sit the exam at their centre. These costs can vary from centre to centre.
