Notice of Chief Regulator’s Rebuke: Pearson Education Limited

A Chief Regulator’s Rebuke has been issued to exam board Pearson Education Limited (Pearson) for serious failures concerning non-compliance in relation to the setting and delivery of A Level maths assessments in the 2025 summer series.

This action is taken under Ofqual’s Supporting Compliance and Taking Regulatory Action policy as a non-statutory enforcement response, where the seriousness of the failings requires a formal public outcome but the circumstances do not warrant a financial penalty.
