Higher English Review

The SQA have announced that they are to review Higher English following concerns about the qualification. The main issues (which were raised following a survey of headteachers) are that pupils do not perform as well as predicted and that the exam is too narrow.

The review will look at the content of the exam but also how SQA share the requirements with teachers.

Read about it here, here and here.
