The choice of taking GCSE and A level exams as an outside candidate
Having independent exam taking opportunities for outside candidates, I.e. allows for different organisations with a different pathway to train and teach pupils.
While giving them a chance to sit exams provides real opportunity for candidates and training providers to pick and choose when and where the exam takes place.
The choice of taking GCSE and A level exams as an outside candidate cannot be over staked.
The result of this choice allows for outside candidates to sit exams in exam centres that might not have the long term relationship with the candidate, Ie. be an outside candidate allows the candidate to split the learning part up of the learning pathway from the exam part of the course. Whether you be a football btec academy, home schooling parent, apprenticeship manager or pupil referral unit, having non school exam taking opportunities provides a strength of choice as well as more control over timings.
