AQA Qualifications

The portfolio covers a range of qualification types delivered to secondary schools, sixth-form colleges, and further education providers. Core offerings include General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) and Advanced Level (A-level) qualifications across subjects such as English, mathematics, sciences, humanities, languages, and creative arts.

Additional pathways include the Entry Level Certificate (ELC), which provides accredited recognition for students working below GCSE level, and the Unit Award Scheme (UAS), which allows centres to record short units of learning for students of all abilities. Each qualification is supported by published specifications, assessment materials, past papers, mark schemes, and examiner reports accessible through the AQA website.

Centres administer assessments through AQA's online services platform, which handles entries, results, and post-results services. The qualifications are regulated by Ofqual in England and are used for progression into further education, higher education, and employment.

Teaching resources, training events, and subject-specific guidance are provided to support educators delivering the specifications.
