GCE A-level: Exports

Asked by Mr Jonathan BrashLabourDepartment for EducationTabled Answered 3 March 2025UIN 32251

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether she has made an estimate of the potential value to the economy of the export of Advanced Level (A-level) qualifications overseas.

Answered by Janet Daby

The department does not hold information on the value of exporting A level qualifications overseas.

Ofqual publishes a range of information about exported qualifications. The latest information is available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/annual-qualifications-market-report-academic-year-2022-to-2023/annual-qualifications-market-report-2022-to-2023-academic-year#in-focus-international-market. This data does not include unregulated qualifications, such as international A levels, which are also offered overseas by awarding organisations.
