Department for Education written question – answered at on 21 June 2021.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what plans his Department has to ensure the continued availability of (a) BTECs and (b) other applied general qualifications .
The department has consulted in two stages on proposals for the review of post-16 qualifications at level 3, which includes Applied General qualifications and level 3 Pearson BTEC qualifications.
The second stage of consultation ran from 23 October 2020 to 31 January 2021 and set out proposals for the qualifications that should be approved for funding alongside A levels and T Levels, and how we will make sure every qualification is high quality and allows progression to good outcomes.
We are considering the feedback to the consultation carefully and will publish a full response later this year.
