WEST MIDLANDS CHOSEN AS PILOT AREA AHEAD OF NATIONAL ROLL-OUT

- ELEANOR BUSBY

GCSE pupils are among first to try results app

THOUSANDS of West Midlands GCSE pupils will receive their exam results via an app this summer as part of a Government pilot to bring records into the 21st century.

Digital education records, which will bring students’ exam results and certificates into one app, will be trialled to help young people when applying to further education (FE), apprenticeships or employment.

More than 95,000 Year 11 pupils in Greater Manchester and the West Midlands will receive their GCSE results via an app ahead of a national roll-out.

The Government has suggested the move will cut bureaucracy and save schools and colleges up to £30 million a year once the roll-out is complete.

It has estimated that this is enough money to pay the salaries of more than 600 new teachers in FE.
