Consultations
This section provides a shortcut to Ofqual's live consultation activities.
We consult with a wide range of stakeholders on issues concerning the regulation of the qualification and exams system.
Contributions from those who work across all spheres of education and regulation ensure that current thinking and expert practice inform developments.
We engage with stakeholders in a variety of ways, including:
- online and postal consultation exercises
- online questionnaires
- face-to-face meetings
- national and regional conferences.
