answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/03/2018 answer text <p>I held a meeting on 12 March with interested MPs and representatives from a leading charity within the field, and have scheduled another meeting with that charity and further interested MPs on 20 March. During frequent visits to schools I engage with teachers and students and discuss a range of topics including sign language.</p><p> </p><p>The Government has introduced a number of recent changes to GCSEs, AS and A levels in England that will affect schools in the coming years. We know that extensive changes need time to settle in, and that school leaders will want stability to bring in the new qualifications. There are no plans to introduce new GCSEs, AS or A levels in this Parliament.</p><p> </p><p>Schools are free to teach British Sign Language and there are existing qualifications available which schools can enter pupils into at any point of their school career. These include a Level 1 award, Level 2, 3 and 4 certificates and a Level 6 NVQ certificate. British Sign Language is also now an alternative to a Level 1 and Level 2 qualification in English when studying an apprenticeship, where British Sign Language is the apprentice’s primary language. This enables those who use British Sign Language to complete their apprenticeship without having to achieve another English qualification, such as GCSE or Functional Skills.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 20/03/2018 18:08:36 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb previous answer version 48390 answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
