Review of the deadlines for GCSE and GCE enquiries about results
Last updated on: 08/04/2008
This review was commissioned by QCA as part of a wider exercise designed to improve the quality of GCSE and GCE marking and enhance public confidence in the examination system. A principal objective of the review was to identify whether there is any scope for changing the current deadlines by which awarding bodies must notify a centre or candidate of the outcome of an enquiry or an appeal. The review also sought to identify the benefits and risks associated with any such changes.
