The General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) is a core secondary school qualification in the UK. Students study chosen courses according to the requirements of specific examination boards (such as AQA, Edexcel, OCR, or Eduqas).
GCSEs are graded on a 9–1 scale, with 9 being the highest possible grade (equivalent to a high A* under the previous grading system).
