Description

Englands qualifications watchdog, Ofqual, is exploring the possibility of digital exams for GCSE and A-level students by the end of the decade. This change aims to introduce new on-screen options for less popular subjects, while maintaining the traditional paper-based format for popular ones. The shift is driven by changing student habits and research showing improved scores with keyboard use. The public consultation is ongoing, with potential implementation by the year 2030.
