Have your say on 14-16 qualification reforms in Wales

Qualifications Wales has commissioned Alma Economics to evaluate the ongoing changes being made to GCSEs and other qualifications for 14-to-16-year-olds in Wales. Over the next three years, they will be exploring how the changes have been introduced in schools, and what differences the changes are making. You can read more about the evaluation here. 

If you are a school leader, teacher or are involved in delivering these qualifications, please complete this survey. In addition to completing the survey, we would value your support with gathering learner feedback from your Year 10 learners. Contact Alma Economics' Team here to gain access to the survey.

If you are a parent / carer supporting learners in year 10 who are experiencing these qualifications, please complete this survey.

Each survey will take no more than 10 minutes and is anonymous. Your input will play an important role in understanding the process and impact of the qualification reforms. 

The survey will close on the 30^th January 2026.

If you have any questions or would like to speak to a member of Alma Economics' team for further guidance, you can reach out to the Research Lead, Caitlin Allen at Caitlin.allen@almaeconomics.com
