Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to the good comparative attainment of Welsh A-level students in 2019, what plans he has to commission a lessons learned review of education in England.
The Department has reformed A levels in England to improve students’ readiness for the demands of higher education. The Department has no plans to review comparative attainment in Wales and England. Education is a devolved matter, and it is for the Welsh government and Qualifications Wales to determine standards in Wales.
