We’re the most chosen exam board in England and we set and mark the papers for around half of all GCSEs and A-levels. Our qualifications are taught in 30 countries around the world. But we’re more than an exam board. As an independent education charity we reinvest all of our income. From funding cutting-edge research, to supporting new insights that help raise the bar in assessment practice internationally, we’re always focused on fair and inclusive assessment and the positive impact it has on teaching, learning and society. In 120 years, our mission hasn’t changed, but the way we improve assessment keeps on evolving.
