Join Richard Vaughan as he discusses Ofqual’s recent decision to consult on removing practical assessments from overall GCSE grades.
He travelled to the Association of Science Education’s annual conference to get the views of Dr Hilary Leevers of the Wellcome Trust and ASE president and Reading University vice-chancellor Sir David Bell.
