You can find all the approval criteria and subject level requirements for AS & A level qualifications available in Wales here.

-
Subject level approval criteria: These documents set out our design requirements for a qualification on a subject level. This includes the purpose and aims, content, assessment arrangements, and grading and reporting. These documents are available for subjects that we have approved for first teaching since 2016.
-
