Earlier this year Pearson and Edexcel, one of the UK's leading examining and awarding bodies, announced an agreement to modernise exam marking and processing.
A new organisation, London Qualifications, will take responsibility for all Edexcel's existing courses and qualifications including GCSE's, GCE A and AS levels, GNVQ's, NVQ's and BTEC Higher National Certificates and Diplomas. Pearson own 75% of London qualifications and the Edexcel Foundation own the remaining 25%. Pearson plans a multi-million investment programme over the next five years through London Qualifications to introduce a technology-based approach to marking and processing examinations.
