A Strategic Guide for the delivery of GCSE English and maths to the 16-19 cohort

This Strategic Guide will help Further Education Providers to implement a strategic approach to delivering GCSE English and maths.

• Chapter 1 outlines and discusses the key issues to be addressed.
• Chapter 2 outlines key areas for less experienced providers to consider.

In producing this guide, IOE worked closely with five Further Education (FE) Colleges, each of which also contributed a case study on an element of their approach to GCSE English and Maths delivery. Extracts from the case studies have been used throughout the Strategic Guide to illustrate its main messages.

The full case studies and the organisational Health Check which accompanies this Strategic Guide are available at:
