Plans to scrap GCSEs in key subjects in England and replace them with an English Baccalaureate Certificate seem set to be abandoned by the government.
The major reversal is expected to be announced, alongside changes to the curriculum, in the Commons later.
Education Secretary Michael Gove had planned to bring in the baccalaureate certificate from autumn 2015.
Labour said it was a "humiliating climbdown" for Mr Gove and the NUT said it was "delighted" by his "U-turn".
