The Education Acts of 1973 and 1988

The Education Act 1973 raised the school leaving age to 16 and in 1988 another Act introduced the National Curriculum.

It also introduced the GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) examination to replace O levels and the CSE (Certificate of Secondary Education).

We do not hold records containing information on examinations taken by individual pupils.
