What's the score with A levels and GCSEs at the minute? I'm just looking at A level specs as I'm thinking about applying for a teaching post (been out of teaching for 10+ years). There appears to be no January exams at all. I had heard about it a year or so back re the GCSEs but I thought it was more about English/Maths. Does this mean if you are sick in June/July you would have to wait a full year to get a second chance at taking the exam? It seems bizarre to me. I can understand the first attempt must be in June of Y11/12 etc. and the first attempt counting for league tables. But you used to be able to resit O levels in November!

No November/January resits? What about illness?
