Before the noble Baroness withdraws her amendment, can I just pick up on that question of comparable qualifications? Presumably the Minister means whether some awarding bodies—IGCSEs—are devaluing the reputation of GCSEs and therefore need to be looked at. If that is the case, will he give me an assurance that Ofqual will be encouraged to accept the idea that it should accredit IGCSEs and international A-levels in order that it should have a hand on the quality of the brand internationally?
