In the lead-up to Easter, thoughts are turning to January results, GCE exam entries and controlled assessment. I know that keeping up to date with information can be difficult, so to ensure you're kept 'in the loop' I want to use this update to bring new resources to your attention and to give you a chance to locate some of them.

An online poll conducted in January suggests that 80% of teachers are planning to conduct their controlled assessment after the Unit 1 exam in May, and most of these are opting for June or July. In this update, I will summarise the different types of support we're offering you in this first year of controlled assessment.
