Details

In September 2017 we announced we would review:

  • the risks and benefits of the long-established practice of some teachers who write or contribute to exam papers also teaching the qualification
  • the effectiveness of the safeguards used to reduce the risk of malpractice where a teacher has the dual role of writing and teaching a qualification

This interim report explains how we have gathered evidence to inform our review, the nature of that evidence, the options we are considering and our next steps.
