AQA: Conditions of Employment and Pay
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, pursuant to the answer of 16 June 2026 to question 7572 titled AQA: Conditions of Employment and Pay, what discussions her Department had had with Ofqual specifically regarding pay and conditions for AQA staff.
- Answer
-
As part of its role as the independent regulator of exams and assessments in England, Ofqual provided assurance to officials in the department that AQA had appropriate contingency arrangements in place to mitigate any potential risks to exam delivery.
Whilst Ofqual cannot directly intervene in AQA’s internal disputes, it will continue to monitor the situation to ensure the strike action does not impact AQA’s ability to deliver exams and results this year.
