HC Deb 21 January 1982 vol 16 c178W
Mr. Skinner

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will ensure that students who are at present included in mode III CSE examinations will not be eased out of the examination system by the new 16-plus examination; and if he will make a statement.

Dr. Boyson

The proposed single system of examinations at 16-plus would cater for candidates in the same range of ability as those for whom GCE O-level and CSE examinations are together designed.
