Ofqual – consultation on proposed assessment arrangements for GCSEs in British Sign Language (BSL)

Posted in News

Ofqual launched a consultation on proposed assessment arrangements for GCSEs in British Sign Language (BSL).

“The consultation is in response to the proposed subject content for new GCSE qualifications in BSL that is being consulted on by Department for Education (DfE), which also launched today.

Ofqual invites your views on how DfE’s proposed subject content for new GCSE qualifications in BSL should be assessed. This includes the approach to tiering, the use of non-exam assessment (NEA) and the assessment objectives.

The consultation is also available in BSL with the facility to provide BSL responses.”

The consultation will be open for 12 weeks and will close at 11:45pm on 7 September 2023.
