From Paul Bowers Isaacson, North Westminster Community School
If Ben Rudder’s daughter was at the school where I have the pleasure to
teach, she wouldn’t be forced to abandon science for the arts after her GCSEs.
Instead, she could take AS level “Science for Public Understanding” alongside
arts A levels
(Forum, 4 April, p 52).
I’m sure I will not be the only one offering the pilot of this new AS format,
which is offered through the Assessment and Qualifications Alliance. I hope that
this course, and others like it, will become more common for precisely the
reasons Rudder outlines.
