Until 2013, the GCSE exam consisted of coursework - sometimes referred to as ‘controlled assessment’ - and exams. A review by Ofqual in 2013 concluded that the coursework element of GCSEs should be scrapped except, for example, in some subjects including science where experiments could demonstrate pupils’ knowledge. The emphasis now is for exams to be linear – that is with one final exam – rather than modular - the previous structure which allowed pupils to be assessed on smaller chunks of learning across two years. <br /> <br /> <br />https://www.chulatutor.com/gcse/
