HC Deb 15 June 1993 vol 226 c499W
18. Sir Teddy Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if he will make a statement on the levels of achievement at A-level.

Mr. Boswell

More people than ever before are taking A-levels, passing them and passing them well. They will continue to set a benchmark for academic achievement. They are a key part of our strategy to provide clear and attractive pathways to high levels of academic and vocational achievement.
