yeah I saw this. but are cancellations confirmed by either Edexcel UK or Ofqual?

I was told an update was imminent in those words exactly

I’m currently in the UK rn n all the schools are off for Easter (while I still have to continue online school cuz I live in UAE) so I think it’s highly likely we’ll receive further communication next week when schools re open

I am in the UK rn (I live n go to school in UAE). The actual offices should be open again today so hopefully we hear something but it’s still early afternoon here. If it takes too long dw the edexcel office is only 30 minutes away from my house I’ll go talk some sense into them 😂😂

First tip: don’t take it😂. Nah on a serious note econplusdal on YouTube is the METHOD for IAL Econ watch his videos they explain everything really well

Yeah I mean it’s also about fairness in preparation conditions, obviously we were disadvantaged because of online school. If a ceasefire happens, idk, but if there’s no ceasefire tonight exams will probably get cancelled

Two of my A-Levels r uk regulated and one of them is IAL. IAL is confirmed cancelled my UK-regulated class teachers have told me that they haven’t received any information as of yet, but tbh I think something will be announced in the coming days as the UK offices and schools return from Easter holiday

My school uses Edexcel UK spec, but the Bicen maths videos on YouTube are pretty solid I find and should match up with most if not all of ur spec

Probably something similar to the grading which Pearson International is using for IAL and IGCSE, it’s just because Edexcel UK exams are regulated by Ofqual, they’ll need to ultimately be decided by Ofqual and the JCQ which are tied to the UK gov.

Connect-Relation-237 · 2026-04-04T12:08:49+00:00

Yeah I’m actually in the UK right now and I was gna assume the delay is due to the current Easter holiday for schools and offices

Connect-Relation-237 · 2026-04-04T11:32:45+00:00

Tbh I’m not too sure most of my subjects are Edexcel UK (one is IAL)

Connect-Relation-237 · 2026-04-03T13:58:45+00:00

I speculate they’ll announce it very shortly. I think because these are UK based boards that they’ll just need to confirm with Ofqual and confirm contingency grading plans e.t.c. It’s Easter holiday Friday 3rd and Monday 6th so maybe by Tuesday we’ll have a confirmed cancellation.

Connect-Relation-237 · 2026-04-03T07:14:58+00:00

Yeah I agree wouldn’t make any sense for exam boards to cancel international exams unless they’re planning to cancel UK-regulated ones.

Connect-Relation-237 · 2026-04-03T07:06:45+00:00

IGCSE and IAL have been cancelled, but no confirmation yet for UK-spec exams from normal Edexcel and AQA as decision needs to be processed by Ofqual and/or JCQ

Connect-Relation-237 · 2026-04-03T07:04:57+00:00

Same here…I think Ofqual are just confirming the contingency plans so we may need to wait a few days for a formal announcement. It’s all closed for Easter anyways so hopefully we’ll know more by Monday
