https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/resits-for-legacy-gcse-as-and-a-levels


Summary of our decisions
Following consultation, we have decided that:

Students taking legacy AS and A levels will have the opportunity to re-sit these qualifications after the final scheduled award, regardless of the subject. These resits will be in May or June of the following year.
At GCSE will require exam boards to provide:
two re-sit opportunities in relation to legacy GCSEs in English, English language and mathematics (including linked pair maths GCSEs ‘applications of mathematics’ and ‘methods in mathematics’), one in November 2016 and one in summer 2017
a re-sit opportunity, no later than summer 2018, in all GCSE science and additional science qualifications they currently offer. Exam boards may decide to offer GCSEs in Biology, Chemistry and Physics but we will not require them to.
At GCSE we will also allow, but not require, exam boards to offer a single re-sit opportunity in the year following the last scheduled sitting in any other legacy GCSE subject
There will be restrictions on who can take both the GCSE and AS and A level resits.
