Understanding this route

How ACT approaches Common Core State Standards.

ACT can support learners who are following this route at school, studying independently, relocating between systems or preparing for an associated examination.

Assessment: Assessment may combine school-based work, tests, coursework, practical work and/or external examinations depending on the stage and subject.

Specification matters. ACT asks for the learner’s exact year/grade, school, subject title and current syllabus/specification where applicable. The same curriculum label can be implemented differently across schools or examination sessions.
