Error in Romeo Juliet question led exam board to apologise
GCSE, which is among UK's biggest exam boards, has been forced to apologise after making a mistake in an exam question about Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. The question wrongly implied that a character named Tybalt was from Romeo's family instead of Juliet's. Officials accused GCSE of "incompetence", while GCSE said it is investigating the mistake "as a matter of urgency".
