Description:
With most GCSE syllabuses changing from September 2009, Mike Baker talks to Ofqual's Head of 14-19 Regulation, Tina Isaacs, about the timetable and implications of these new GCSEs. We also hear from science teachers who have been teaching the new science syllabus for the last couple of years to gauge their responses, and from heads who are anticipating the upheaval surrounding the introduction of a wide swathe of new GCSEs in Autumn 09. Representatives from the exam boards offer advice on controlled assessment, while Tina Isaacs helps clarify how much help a teacher can give to a pupil under assessment conditions. We also find out how the newly modular approach to many GCSEs will work, how often these modules can be sat and what proportion can be taken before the end of the course
