Reform of 14-16 Performance Tables from 2014 - Children and young people
In future, the only non-GCSE qualifications to be recognised in school and college performance tables for 14- to 16-year-olds will have been judged to be high quality and rigorous.

In March 2012 we sent an information pack to every head teacher of a state maintained secondary school in England, in order to explain the strategic opportunities they would have from September 2012 to develop Computer Science as a rigorous academic component within a reformed ICT curriculum. Identifying the right strategies to ensure success is of paramount importance. The supporting materials in the information pack provide comprehensive information that will help head teachers and school governors make the right decisions.
