Liberal Democrat Party

Strongly agree

No, vocational or skill based qualifications should also be available

The Liberal Democrats have historically supported the idea of offering vocational and skill-based qualifications alongside traditional academic qualifications like GCSEs. For example, in their 2019 General Election Manifesto, they pledged to 'replace high-stakes, one-off testing with a broader range of assessments' and to 'introduce a new two-year vocational learning offer for young people who do not want to take an academic qualification.' This suggests that they would be in favor of providing alternative options to GCSE exams for students at the end of Year Eleven.

Slightly agree

No

The Liberal Democrats have not explicitly opposed the idea of students taking GCSE exams at the end of Year Eleven, but they have advocated for a more flexible and inclusive education system that recognizes different learning styles and needs.

Disagree

Yes

The Liberal Democrats have not explicitly called for every student to be required to take a GCSE exam at the end of Year Eleven. They have, however, supported the importance of a broad and balanced curriculum, which includes GCSEs as a key component.
