What action is the Welsh Government taking to improve understanding of the reformed science qualification pathways, following the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Science Teaching Survey 2026 findings that 88 per cent of learners and 76 per cent of parents and guardians were reported to have little or no understanding of the new pathways?

The revised 14 to 16 learning guidance sets out the new science GCSE pathways, including the continuation of separate science qualifications alongside integrated options. The guidance reinforces schools’ responsibilities to provide high-quality information, advice and guidance to learners and their parents and carers to support informed qualification choices.
To support this, we have commissioned video resources aimed at parents, carers and learners outlining the full suite of National 14 to 16 Qualifications which will be available shortly. This complements the existing range of information and guidance available on the Qualifications Wales website.
