General qualifications and assessment teacher feedback
To enable us to improve the experience of teachers using our qualifications and students sitting our exams, we gather feedback after each exam series. If you're a teacher, and your students have taken any of our exams in the May/June 2025 series, we are eager to hear your thoughts.
We are also keen to hear from Edexcel Politics students about their experiences of studying our qualification and sitting exams this summer. We’d be grateful if you could encourage your students to complete this survey before the end of term to help give us more insight into our qualifications and assessments. We’ve used a similar survey with students over the past three exam series and received lots of helpful feedback from Politics students.
