WJEC / CBAC is Wales’ largest awarding body, delivering bilingual qualifications, specialist support, and reliable assessment to schools and colleges across the country, with its base in Cardiff, Wales. Founded in 1948 from a consortium of local education authorities, the organization now operates as a registered charity and company limited by guarantee. It is led by an Executive Leadership Team and supported by a broad workforce of subject specialists and education professionals. Since the 2015 reforms, it has become the sole qualification provider for most GCSE and AS/A level subjects in state-funded schools and colleges across Wales, including Welsh-medium provision. The body collaborates with Schools, Colleges, Regional Consortia, and Qualifications Wales to support the Welsh Government’s objective of a high-quality, nation-wide education system. In March 2026, Signature partnered with WJEC to develop British Sign Language qualifications within the Skills for Life suite.
