Ofqual’s guides for schools and colleges
Guidance for schools, colleges and other exam or assessment centres on qualifications arrangements.
These guides are for:
- schools
- colleges
- other exam or assessment centres
They explain what schools, colleges and other exam or assessment centres can expect from awarding organisations regulated by Ofqual. It also explains how qualifications will be regulated this year.
The guides cover qualifications which are typically taken in an academic year, in schools or colleges, including GCSEs, AS and A levels, Technical Qualifications within a T Level and vocational and technical qualifications (VTQs) that are on the Department for Education’s performance tables. We expect the main users of these guides to be those supporting students through their qualifications.

Ofqual’s Guide for Schools and Colleges 2023 is relevant for qualifications taken in summer 2023, or GCSEs taken in November 2023 with results expected in January 2024.
