f1

The reference to the Qualifications and Curriculum Development Agency (“QCDA”) was substituted for the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority by virtue of article 18 of S.I. 2010/677. Section 25 of the Education Act 2011 (c. 21) provided for the abolition of the QCDA. Prior to its abolition the QCDA was responsible, amongst other things, for guidance on the assessment arrangements relating to the early learning goals as specified by the learning and development requirements. The functions of the QCDA in relation to assessment arrangements will be performed by the Standards and Testing Agency, an executive agency of the Department for Education.
