Debate between Gavin Williamson and Bill Wiggin

Wednesday 18th March 2020 Commons Chamber

[Gavin Williamson]

Yes, we can.

[Bill Wiggin (North Herefordshire) (Con)]

This Easter holiday was, for good students, their opportunity to revise, so we do not have a great deal of time to give proper guidance for A-level and GCSE students. How long should they expect it to be before they know exactly what is going to happen?

[Gavin Williamson]

We will be giving very clear guidance for all schools and all students. There will not be exams taking place this year, and we will be making sure, for every child due to be sitting GCSEs, A-levels or any other form of qualifications and expecting results in August, that the work they have done is properly reflected in those GCSEs and A-levels.
