Question to the Department for Education:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the case for pupils who have done most of their schoolwork on a laptop, not for reasons of disability, to be permitted to use a laptop for (1) GCSE, and (2) A-level examinations.
This is a matter for Ofqual, the Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation. I have asked its Chief Regulator, Sally Collier, to write to my noble Friend and a copy of her reply will be placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
