Welsh Govt: WJEC findings 'just one part of the picture'

The Welsh Government says it will "consider" the findings of the WJEC internal report.

In broad terms WJEC consider that their examiners marked question papers correctly and accurately, however this is just one part of the picture and there are other, wider issues that we still need to investigate.

We are doing this through the Rapid Fact Finding Exercise that we are conducting. The review is now well underway and will be rigorous in its approach.

It will identify factors underlying the results and put in place appropriate actions to support schools as they prepare learners for the June assessments.

– Welsh Government spokesperson
