About AQA and GCSE Foundation Tier
A General Certificate of Secondary Education, or GCSE, is an academic credential at the secondary level that is highly regarded by colleges, employers, and educational institutions around the world. The qualification largely entails studying a subject's theory while also requiring some research and, in certain cases, practical work. The GCSE foundation tier is ideal for students who find the higher tier challenging and are aiming for grades 1-5 in their GCSE.
The goal of the awarding authority known as AQA, an academic and general qualification, is to improve students' knowledge and skills. It establishes standards, conducts exams at the GCSE, AS, and A Level in a range of subjects, and awards credentials for employment. These certifications are highly valued by employers and colleges around the world.
About Official Exam, Assessment & Certification
