==== Question duplication ==== In June, Paper 3 of the Mathematics GCSE (Higher Tier, 1MA1/03) appeared to contain an exam question which was published in an [[AQA]] (another British exam board) [[Further Mathematics]] [[textbook]]. The exam question had the same [[diagram]], values and answer as the question in the textbook. Pearson Edexcel said that they were investigating how this might have happened.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://schoolsweek.co.uk/gcse-exam-investigating-edexcel-question-aqa-textbook/|title=Edexcel pupils given question 'copied' from AQA textbook|last=Snowdon|first=Kathryn|date=2019-06-13|website=Schools Week|access-date=2019-06-16}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.thetimes.com/uk/education/article/revision-question-appears-in-gcse-maths-exam-r6hg2z37n|title=Revision question appears in GCSE maths exam|last=Ewan Somerville|first=Sian Griffiths and|date=2019-06-16|work=The Sunday Times|access-date=2019-06-16|language=en|issn=0956-1382}}</ref>
