BTEC for below Level 2 learners

Boost achievement with BTECWe’ve designed our new BTEC Entry Level and Level 1 qualifications to help you:

• capture learner interest• boost achievement, and• increase course retention rates.

These highly motivating, practical qualifications offer you a flexible way to deliver courses designed precisely around the needs and aspirations of your learners.

BTEC works for below Level 2These new qualifications are designed to give your learners the opportunity to show what they can do not purely what they know.

• All units are skills-based and taught within a vocational context.

• Grading for Entry Level 3 and Level 1 means learners are motivated by their own progress and you have a clearer idea of when they are ready to move on.

• Entry Level 1 and 2 Pre-vocational qualifications offer your learners a way to develop the essential personal and social skills they will need to progress to independent living, future employment or further study.

“Retention was over 90% for all pathways and many achieved 100%.”
