The awarding bodies have made a significant change with effect from next summer. In short, the starting date for AS examinations has been brought forward. The knock-on effect of this is that the results process for all examinations will move forward by a week.
The professional associations are in agreement that this was done without adequate consultation. NAHT has particular concerns about the impact this will have on work-life balance for senior leaders in schools. Members are invited to share their concerns with the Association in order that these can be forwarded to JCQ on behalf of the awarding bodies. (comments to sionh@naht.org.uk)
