Context
Next Steps
The principal aim of the next evolution of e-scape is to take it to an Awarding Body pilot that will involve national awards at 16+. This is planned to begin in September 2009 with at least one Awarding Body and run for the two years of normal 16+ examination courses. Discussions are underway with all the appropriate bodies - including Ofqual - to launch this final phase of e-scape.
The Awarding Body pilot will run for two years in a nominated subject, with the e-scape component being one element of the assessment for that subject/award. Provided that the pilot is concluded successfully, it is planned that the system then moves towards commercial exploitation by Awarding Bodies and others.
