English Baccalaureate
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will publish an estimated timetable for the removal of the English baccalaureate.
Answered by Georgia Gould
As part of the government response to the Curriculum and Assessment Review's final report, published on 5 November 2024, we announced our intention to remove EBacc headline and additional measures at key stage 4.
This will take effect for the key stage 4 performance measures for the 2025/26 academic year, to be published in autumn 2026.
