Ofqual - Review of Standards in GCE mathematics in 2004 and 2007

As the regulator of external qualifications in England, Ofqual is responsible for ensuring the maintenance of GCE and GCSE standards over time and across awarding bodies. One of the ways it does this is through a programme of standards reviews. These reviews investigate examination standards and determine whether any action is needed to safeguard them. They are carried out periodically, covering the major subjects at both GCSE and A level. To keep the work manageable, the reviews consider only the highest entry syllabus from each awarding body. This report is about the review of standards in GCE mathematics in 2004 and 2007.
