3. Exams aren’t what they used to be! TRUE… Students are now on different pathways All have to sit some exams These now take place at different times of the year (modules) There is no longer coursework – it is now called Controlled Conditions So what can we expect from GCSEs and their equivalents?

4.  Different GCSE’s have different amounts of controlled assessment that count towards the final grade. This ranges from 0%-60%.  Controlled assessments can last anything between 1 hour and 30 hours.  Each subject has its own rules for controlled assessment regarding what materials can be used, whether work can be completed at home, if notes can be used etc.

5.  These subjects are assessed 100% on “coursework”.  All units must be completed for pupils to gain the qualification.  Any day of school missed could jeopardise completion. Attendance is vital.
