“At the UCL Centre for Research in Autism and Education (CRAE), we have partnered with Pearson to look at how neurotypical and neurodivergent (e.g. those who are autistic/have ADHD) students answer GCSE exam questions (https://www.nuffieldfoundation.org/project/examine-exam-inequality-for-neurodivergent-students). We hope this will allow us to make our exams more accessible for all students. We would be very grateful if UK-based centres with students taking Pearson GCSE examinations would consider taking part in the next phase of this very important project. This would involve providing information about the neurodivergent students you have within your GCSE cohorts (e.g. type of neurodivergence). Involvement should not take more than 30 minutes of your time (depending on cohort size). To find out more, please click here to enter your contact details: https://bit.ly/ucl-exam-project and we will be in touch with further details! Thanks so much for your time.
