Pearson and AQA reps put statements on the exam officers face book saying they would continue with A2C for the time being. There is speculation that it could be CIE.

Doesn’t surprise me, I do wonder if it was Pearson, they hadn’t actually done any work towards it – didn’t think it would actually
go ahead apparently! I thought they might get their act together. I might be wrong but that’s who my money’s on.

Yes I fell just like that,
All the promises that have been given for it to fall flat on its face.
All the money that’s been pumped into this as well, feel like the NHS cockup.
Cheers

Thanks Vicky. Now it's only a matter of time................ if one AO has pulled out - the others will surely follow. Then that's the end of the project and Tribal can get on with re-developing the Exams
module without having any more excuses to delay.
I can only imagine that JCQ is trying to work out some sort of damage limitation statement and some other big headlines to hide the announcement behind.
What a shambles. Another poorly managed over-complex project which has wasted so much time and resources of all concerned.
It could all have been so different...................

We have a temporary MIS manager and she spilled the beans but she couldn’t remember which awarding

Afternoon everyone,
Has anyone heard the rumour that one of the major awarding bodies has walked away from A2C?
No one is telling me which one it is?
