Ofqual, the qualifications regulator, has announced its final batch of GCSEs and A levels facing reform. Most ‘core’ subjects have already been reformed – eg English, maths, geography. (And a few other oddities). Today, the final decisions were announced for other subjects. If a subject you teach is under the ‘will NOT be reformed’ list, then it will not be available to teach from 2017 (or earlier, depending on the exam board). If it is on the list that Ofqual WILL reform then it should be safe. But being on the ‘will reform’ list is not a guarantee of survival. There is still the possibility exam boards won’t develop it. If it is under review then the jury is still out.
