In order to facilitate the work of higher education admissions departments and student mobility for higher education study, this project sought to develop a unique and effective resource providing value comparisons of upper secondary qualifications in Europe and their grading systems.

As a pilot project, the study focussed on a selection of 27 countries in Europe, conducting a literature review on grade comparison systems and in-depth research into the upper secondary school systems of each country and identifying awards which could be considered comparable to the overall GCE A Level standard (the typical entry qualification for higher education in the UK).
