GCSE results in Wales are dropping—but don’t panic, it’s part of a major overhaul. Year 10 students are getting their first marks under revamped qualifications, with WJEC making adjustments to keep grading fair. Vocational paths and the Welsh Baccalaureate are also shifting, paving the way for new skills courses. While some students feel the pressure from tougher Year 9 work, others—like Yaroslav, an Ukrainian engineering hopeful—are thriving with support. WJEC’s CEO admits the transition is tough but insists no student will be left behind; overall outcomes are expected to stay stable. Ahead: new history and science GCSEs, dance and digital media courses, and soon, vocational certs on par with traditional GCSEs—all aimed at better preparing students for the future.
