<p>Our reform programme for GCSE and A levels is intended to ensure they are demanding
and more rigorous. We have taken account of a wide range of concerns in ensuring that
the final content for ancient language GCSEs provides a suitable preparation for further
study. The published content for A and AS levels has been designed to allow the development
of new stand-alone AS qualifications, including for ancient languages, that can be
co-taught with the A level. We are supporting secondary schools by funding £500,000
of training for non-specialist teachers of Latin in state schools, which will to help
them get to grips with the GCSE standard.</p><p> </p>
