ITV News has learned that more than 90 per cent of pupils in Wales who sat controversial English language GCSE exams in January have entered to re-sit them this summer.

More than 20,000 pupils sat at least one unit of the new qualification, available for the first time in January, and the vast majority will be doing so again, in the hope of correcting shock low grades.
