The Manx public is being invited to have its say on a new era of qualifications for the Island's 16-year olds.
GCSEs in their current form are to be scrapped next year, in a major overhaul which will focus on formal exams and bring an end to course work modules.
Education chiefs in the Isle of Man must now choose between following the route England takes with the new-style GCSE; switching to the equivalent Scottish qualification; or adopting International GCSEs.
Those options were spelled out to parents at a series of public meetings around the Island in recent weeks.
Next week, a public consultation will begin.
Coordinator for 11-19 education Paul Craine says they want people to comment on the pros and cons of options on the table:
