What the college says

Rationale for the Pearson BTEC Level 1/Level 2 First Award in Public Services The rationale for all qualifications in the BTEC First suite in Public Services is to: ● inspire and enthuse learners to consider a career in the public service sector ● give learners the opportunity to gain a broad knowledge and understanding of, and develop skills in, the public service sector ● support progression into a more specialised Level 3 vocational or academic course or into an apprenticeship ● give learners the potential opportunity, in due course, to enter employment within a wide range of junior job roles across the public service sector, for example entrylevel jobs within the armed services or non-uniformed services ● provide opportunities for the development of transferable skills related to study and vocational application that provide a platform for success both within the public services and elsewhere. The specific aims of the Pearson BTEC Level 1/Level 2 First Award in Public Services are to: ● enable learners to develop a broad and comprehensive understanding of the public service sector ● provide relevant and appropriate public services content for 14−16 year olds.

Who else teaches this exact qualification

Same qualification, different college. Entry requirements and how it is taught can differ a lot between them, which is the whole reason to compare.
