Passing and Failing
The pass marks for the literacy and maths tests were increased to 63% in 2012. Candidates are now also restricted to 1 attempt and 2 resits in each of these tests, which must be completed before beginning teacher training. Resits incur a charge.

Famous quotes containing the words passing and/or failing:
“The Greeks possessed a knowledge of human nature we seem hardly able to attain to without passing through the strengthening hibernation of a new barbarism.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“The source of Pyrrhonism comes from failing to distinguish between a demonstration, a proof and a probability. A demonstration supposes that the contradictory idea is impossible; a proof of fact is where all the reasons lead to belief, without there being any pretext for doubt; a probability is where the reasons for belief are stronger than those for doubting.”
—Andrew Michael Ramsay (1686–1743)
