What the college says

Entry Level Certificates (ELCs) are nationally recognised qualifications which give students the opportunity to achieve a certificated award. The ELC Science specification is co-teachable with our GCSE Combined Sciences to suit students who are studying both qualifications. The assessment is on demand so your students can complete assignments when they are ready, helping to keep them motivated. Like all of our science qualifications, we use straightforward language in our tests to allow students to focus on the science and achieve the results they deserve.

What you need to get on

This qualification is linear. Linear means that students submit all components that form the assessment at the end of the course. Two Entry Level Certificate Science qualifications are available. • Entry Level Certificate (Single Award) • Entry Level Certificate (Double Award) Students will be entered for either ELC Science – Single Award or ELC Science – Double Award. There are three levels of award available: Entry 1, Entry 2 and Entry 3. Entry 3 is the most demanding.
