What the college says

The Pearson BTEC Entry Level 1 in Pre-vocational Study qualifications are designed around practical skills and tasks that place an emphasis on learners demonstrating what they can do rather than what they know in theory. The qualifications give learners the opportunity to acquire and develop generic and transferable skills in order to complete tasks and demonstrate a level of achievement at Entry Level 1, which enables them to work towards independent living skills, progress to supported employment or progress to further learning at Entry Level 2. There are four sizes for centres to choose from depending on the needs of the learners, the mode of study and the intended progression pathway.

What you need to get on

These BTEC Pre-vocational qualifications are available to all learners at this level who want to continue their education and develop their skills for progression to further learning and, ultimately, to employment.

How you are assessed

Entry level and Level 1 study, English and maths retakes, and supported programmes.

What this level means

A supported starting point if exams have not gone well yet.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?
