GCSE skills test options set out
From the BBC : -
The functional skills teenagers in England will need to get a grade C in maths and English GCSEs have been published for consultation.
two approaches are being tried: one using free-standing tests, the other incorporating them into the GCSE exams.
Schools and colleges will introduce the revised GCSEs in English and ICT in September 2009, with maths a year later.
A spokesman said it had not yet been decided whether the functional skills tests - which are available at three levels - would be graded or could simply be passed or failed.
