This consultation is about the rules and guidance we need to put in place for new GCSEs in citizenship studies. These rules will apply to the exam boards that want to offer new citizenship studies GCSEs from September 2016.

This consultation takes forward decisions made following our earlier consultation Developing new GCSE, A level and AS qualifications for first teaching in 2016 - Part 2, and is part of Ofqual’s work supporting the government’s changes to GCSEs, AS and A levels.
