What is a BTEC?
Earlier release of Pearson Set Assignments from September 2023
After listening carefully and reviewing your feedback, we are making changes to our BTEC Tech Awards (2022) that will give you more time to prepare and deliver Pearson Set-Assignments. We’re also offering extensions, should you need them, for completing our current Pearson Set Assignments for May/June.
Following your feedback, we will be releasing all Pearson Set Assignments one month earlier within each series. This will give you more time to spend preparing for and administering the assessments. From September onwards, the Pearson Set Assignments will be released as follows:
| Pearson Set Assignment Release | |
| December/January Assessment Series | Early September - all subjects NB: Art and Design Practice does not include December/January series assessment |
| May/June Assessment Series | Early January - all subjects
|
(This change does not affect Performing Arts and Art & Design Practise.)

Extensions for May/June series internal assessments
We have heard from teachers that the May/June window for completing internal assessments has been challenging due to a number of factors. If your learners are experiencing loss of assessment time you can request an extension using our support portal.
When submitting your request please using the following classifications:
Request type – Coursework & Controlled/Internal Assessment
Category – Deadlines & Dates
Sub Category – Extension to Deadline.
