Exactly right. Scrapping AGQs will shut down opportunities in applied science, health & social care, IT and more - leaving tens of thousands of students stranded in a qualifications black hole. Colleges need certainty now. Ministers must act quickly. #ProtectStudentChoice

Whatever long term plans for 16-19 are unveiled in the coming months, the short term reality is that scrapping AGQs will leave many students without a pathway in 2026. Priority #1 for ministers must be to ensure AGQs remain available #ProtectStudentChoicehttps://t.co/mAnQlLDTW7

'SFCA called for an “urgent” uplift to capital expansion funding to allow increasingly oversubscribed colleges to create more classrooms [...] “We are in the middle of a demographic boom and demand for places is really high.”' #createthecapital https://t.co/Q9oqluTMtj

These useful @ofqual stats highlight why referring to yesterday as 'T level and A level results day' is problematic (c.12k T level results issued) and how the degree of 'confusion' with quals is overstated (e.g. there are twice as many A/AS levels than AGQs) #ProtectStudentChoice pic.twitter.com/AwkVPgg7a9
