Our work with HRUC

This innovative trial will explore a unitised format in which GCSE maths content is delivered and assessed in three distinct stages throughout the year. Students at HRUC will sit these assessments during mock periods in December 2025, January and March 2026, before taking the full linear GCSE qualification in the summer. 

The aim is to give students the opportunity to demonstrate progress and mastery in stages, recognising achievement along the way and building self-belief through more focused, less overwhelming assessments. The approach also seeks to reduce the emotional and logistical pressures associated with traditional resits, and ultimately, shorten the time students spend in these cycles.
