Sir Kevan Collins urges rethink on maths and English resits and calls for exams to be moved online
Pupils who struggle to achieve a pass at GCSE maths and English and are then forced to resit when they fail should be given four years to complete their course rather than the standard two to give them a better chance of success, according to the government’s catch-up tsar.
Sir Kevan Collins, who is leading the Westminster government’s education recovery efforts to make up for lost learning during Covid, added his voice to calls for a rethink on GCSEs post-pandemic.
