Liberal Democrat Party Conference: The Future of GCSEs

20th September 2021 02/09/2021 17:50

At this year’s Liberal Democrat conference, the Education Policy Institute is partnering with AQA to co-host an open fringe panel discussion: ‘The future of GCSEs’. 

The COVID-19 pandemic and the cancellation of exams for two years in a row has raised discussions about the future of examinations. The pandemic and disruption to learning presents a unique opportunity to reassess our approach to assessments to ensure that our young people have access to a system that best prepares them for higher education or employment in 2021. 

We are delighted to confirm a stellar line-up of panellists, including Natalie Perera, EPI Colin Hughes, AQA; Lord Storey; Jake Anders, UCL; and Becky Boomer-Clark, Academies Enterprise Trust.

 

** Note: This event will take place in the conference secure zone. To access the secure zone you will need to obtain a pass directly from the Liberal Democrat Party.**
