Gareth Thomas – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Education

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Gareth Thomas on 2016-03-07.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will require the Oxford, Cambridge and RSA, AQA and Edexcel examinations boards to offer GCSE and A-level Bengali examinations beyond September 2018; and if she will make a statement.

Nick Gibb

Exam boards are independent organisations and the department continues to work closely with them to secure the future of all the existing GCSEs and A levels in less-taught languages, including Bengali.
