Eduqas is the English brand of the British examination board WJEC,[1] launching in September 2015. All reformed qualifications formerly offered by WJEC in England are now branded as Eduqas, whilst those in Wales continued to be branded as WJEC. Current qualifications being delivered in England continued to be branded WJEC until they were revised.

Reformed Qualifications[]

From 2015, Eduqas offered Ofqual reformed [2]GCSEs, AS and A Levels and other Level 3 qualifications such as Diploma/Certificate in Criminology or Medical Science[3][4] to schools and colleges in England, Northern Ireland, Isle of Man, the Channel Islands and the independent sector in Wales.

GCSEs in England are regulated by Ofqual and are now graded 9-1 instead of A*-G. Independent schools in Wales, schools in the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands may choose between qualifications regulated by Ofqual and those regulated by the Welsh Government.
