GCSE achievement

Created

None

I have a learner who has dyslexia.  They have re-sat their English GCSE with all necessary and allowed support given.  He has achieved a Grade 3 again.  As he is about to start the second year of his programme of study, does he need to continue doing GCSE English?  

 

Many thanks

Presuming he's under 19, then yes he does to meet Condition of Funding.

Hi Steve, yes he is still under 19, so that would be a third attempt?

Steve Hewitt

Afraid so, yes...

All I'll say is this is (possibly) the last year of the 5% tolerance, so, depending on the rest of your cohort, you could take a proactive decision to say he doesn't have to, if that's in his best interests, without it costing you in two years time (the joys of lagged funding!).

Thanks Steve.
