Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment he has made of the accuracy of examination marking for (a) GCSEs, (b) BTECs and (c) A-Levels in each of the last five years.

This is a matter for Ofqual, the Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation. I have asked its Chief Regulator, Sally Collier, to write directly to the hon. Member and a copy of her reply will be placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
